This paper presents an algorithm based on inter-solutions of having scheduled electricity generation resources and the fuzzy logic as a sublimation tool of outcomes obtained from the schedule inter-solutions. The goal of the algorithm is to bridge the conflicts between minimal cost and other aspects of generation. In the past, the optimal scheduling of electricity generation resources has been ...

This paper proposes a co-optimization generation and distribution planning model in microgrids in which simultaneous investment in generation, i.e., distributed generation (DG) and distributed energy storage (DES), and distribution, i.e., upgrading the existing distribution network, is considered. The objective of the proposed model is to minimize the microgrid total planning cost which compris...

Distributed Generation (DG) sources are becoming more and more prominent in distribution networks due to the incremental demands for electrical energy. Determination of optimal locations and capacities of Distributed Generation (DG) sources has become one of the major problems of distribution utilities. In this paper Swine Influenza Model Based Optimization with Quarantine (SIMBO-Q) has been ap...

Abstract A system of power generation whereby the generating equipment is located close to point usage, thereby reducing losses and operation cost called distributed (DG). However, it imperative that DGs are sited such quality delivered optimized total real loss within minimized. This paper proposes an approach for optimum sizing siting in a distribution using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algo...

Optimal placement of distributed generation (DG) is an essential task for distribution companies in order to operate the network good operating conditions. DG units optimization problem where minimization active power losses considered as objective function. In this paper, hybrid genetic dragonfly algorithm used technique find optimal location and size units. The proposed implemented on IEEE 15...
