This paper presents a software package tool designed using a MATLAB GUI for solving economic load dispatch problem. This proposed software tool help user to modify the input detail according to the requirements of the power system operation for optimization of generating cost.This could be explained bysolving economic load dispatch problem using conventional techniques, i.e. proportional load division,Lagrange multiplier and population based, i.e. PSO with real time coal quality as an additional inequality constraint. The results obtained are compared with other units of the same system i.e. with coal quality and without taking coal quality into consideration and plotted in an axis palette of software tools.
