            Abstract : 
In view of the complexity of the unit commitment in the power system unit, a method was put forward based on cross-entropy algorithm to optimize unit commitment. By establishing a system unit portfolio optimization model, the cross-entropy algorithm has been utilized to optimize the unit commitment. The calculation and simulation results indicated the quickness and the effectiveness by using the cross-entropy algorithm in unit combinatorial optimization.
