One of the basic obstacles in the deployment of clean technologies such as wind turbines or PV modules is their intermittent nature due to dependency on the wind speed and solar radiance. In fact, the authors in this paper aim to investigate the effect of clean technologies such as wind turbines and PV modules on the total and individual costs of the distribution system. In order to model the u...

The increased deployment of distributed generation calls for the coordination and interaction between transmission distribution levels. This requirement is particularly relevant planning purposes when renewable-based involved. Unfortunately, in current industry practice, network planners solve their problems independent each other, thereby leading to suboptimal solutions. Within this context, p...

Introducing distributed generation into a power system can lead to numerous benefits including technical, economic, environmental, etc. To attain these benefits, distributed generators with proper rating should be installed at suitable locations. Given the similar effects of distributed generators and capacitor banks on operation indices of a distribution system, simultaneous assignment of best...

Solar panel installations have increased significantly in Japan recent decades. Due to this, world trends, such as clean/renewable energy, are being implemented power systems all across Japan—particularly of photovoltaic (PV) panels general households. In this work, solar was estimated using radiation data from geographic information system (GIS) technology. The estimation applied the actual di...

The paper presents a risk-based distribution network planning procedure to perform comparison (in terms of costs and associated residual risks) among conventional solutions the exploitation flexibility purchased from distributed energy resources through bilateral contracts or local markets. has been integrated within software developed by Authors in past decades for expansion planning. already ...
