Solar-DG and DSTATCOM Concurrent Planning in Reconfigured Distribution System Using APSO and GWO-PSO Based on Novel Objective Function

The concurrent planning of multiple Distributed Generations (DGs), consisting solar-DG and DSTATCOM with reconfiguration in IEEE 33 69 bus Radial Distribution Network (RDN), using Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) hybrid Grey Wolf-Particle (GWO-PSO), is reported this paper. For planning, a novel objective-based fitness-function (MOFF) proposed based on various performance parameters the system, such as power losses (both active, well reactive loss), system voltage profile, short circuit level line current (SCLLCurrent), reliability. economic perspective has also been considered costs, fix, loss, Energy Not Supplied (ENS) cost. Two case studies have presented RDN to validate efficacy methodology. results analysis shows that better can be achieved technique for RDN, GWO-PSO rather than APSO. From analysis, vital point noticed SCLLCurrent reduced, which causes short-circuit (fault) tolerance capacity (level) become enhanced. Finally, comparative obtained results, method other methods exist different literature, reveals performed from techno-economic prospective.
