The operation of a distribution system in the presence of distributed generation systems has someadvantages and challenges. Optimal sizing and siting of DG systems has economic, technical, andenvironmental benefits in distribution systems. Improper selection of DG systems can reduce theseadvantages or even result in deterioration in the normal operation of the distribution system. DGallocation ...

An unbalanced electrical distribution system (DS) with radial construction and passive nature suffers from significant power loss. The unstable load demand poor voltage profile resulted insufficient reactive in the DS. This research implements a unique Rao algorithm without metaphors for optimal allocation of multiple distributed generation (DG) static compensators (DSTATCOM). For appropriate s...

Wind Power Distributed Generators (WPDGs) are being increasingly placed in the power system due to their several technical and environmental benefits. In this paper, a Modified Particle Swarm Optimizer (MPSO) based method is proposed for placement of multiple WPDGs and capacitors. Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) based probabilistic load flow, considering uncertainty in load demand and wind generat...

Distribution feeder is the final stage in the delivery of electricity to consumers. The feeder can be radial or networked. Radial feeders leave the power station towards the consumers without any connection to other power supply. Networked feeders have multiple connections to other supply points. It is common for long radial feeders for voltage to drop along the way and for losses to increase w...

The growing use of distributed generation (DG) at the distribution level has led to a change in status networks from passive network an active such as transmission systems. Therefore, pricing method nodal could be used network. DG connection affects bus pricing. If presence reduces losses and congestion network, will also decrease. This paper presents for calculating optimal size place based on...

Image rendering maps scene parameters to output pixel values; animation maps motion-control parameters to trajectory values. Because these mapping functions are usually multidimensional, nonlinear, and discontinuous, nding input parameters that yield desirable output values is often a painful process of manual tweaking. Interactive evolution and inverse design are two general methodologies for ...

This paper presents application of a new effective metaheuristic optimization method namely, the Jaya algorithm to deal with different optimum power flow (OPF) problems. Unlike other population-based optimization methods, no algorithm-particular controlling parameters are required for this algorithm. In this work, three goal functions are considered for the OPF solution: generation cost minimiz...

This paper presents the influence of distributed generation (DG) on congestion and locational marginal price (LMP) in an optimal power flow (OPF) based wholesale electricity market. The problem of optimal placement to manage congestion and reduce LMP is formulated for the objective of social welfare maximization. From competitive electricity market standpoint, DGs have great value when they red...
