Global warming is impacting almost every nation of the world and causing excessive socioeconomic damage to human civilization. India is presently the second most inhabited country on the planet and possesses the noteworthy potential to curb global greenhouse gas emissions. Most of the stakeholders of the global communities have signed the Paris treaty of 2015 to curtail the surface temperature rise. As the central government of India has announced its target to attain net zero-emission by the end of 2070, the electricity generation sector of the country needs to utilize renewable resources like wind energy rapidly. This paper focuses to optimize the wind energy generation cost in the Tirumala region of the country using the Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm intelligence concurrently. Tirumala is located in the area of Tirupati in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh. A relative analysis of the optimization outcomes validates the superiority of the Genetic Algorithm over the Binary Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for minimizing the wind energy generation cost. The application of the Genetic Algorithm has been proven to cut down the generation cost by up to 7.56% as compared to the usage of Binary Particle Swarm Optimization for similar terrain conditions and wind flow conditions in the Tirumala Area.
