Regarding the nature of non-linear discrete placement, and in order to determine the optimal capacity of the substation, the goal in the present study will be a number of local optimum points. In this research, the problem of optimal placement posts to reduce power losses by considering Distributed Generation (DG). In formulating the objective function, geographical distribution density in the ...

presence of distributed generation (dg) in electric distribution systems provides an attractive new alternative in capacity expansion planning of these systems. in this paper a new model is developed for solving simultaneous placement of hv/mv substations and dg units as a static planning tool. this model aims to minimize fixed and variable costs of planning. constraints related to dgs, substat...

In this paper we present a model predictive control algorithm for scheduling electric vehicle charging. The model accounts for distribution network constraints and seeks to minimize the cost of procuring energy from the real-time market for electric vehicle charging. We present a case study for an IEEE test case distribution system.
