This paper presents a methodology for efficient allocation of distributed generation units (DG), based on the genetic algorithm of Chu-Beasley. This algorithm presents good performance and obtains accurate solutions solving the allocation DG problem when used in distribution systems of small and medium size. The proposed methodology was compared with an exhaustive search algorithm. The results shown,...
