Integration of the distributed energy resources in power distribution network has emerged as a significant method to optimize the operation and planning of the power distribution network. The optimal distributed generation placement comprises of obtaining the optimal size and location of the DGs to be placed. Various methods and techniques have been used to obtain the best possible results for optimal...
Application of meta-heuristic techniques to engineering optimization problems has proved to be an efficient tool. In transaction based electricity markets transmission losses must be allocated among transactions rather than the individual buses as in case of pool based markets. In this paper an attempt is made to apply Music Based Harmonic Search Algorithm (MBHSA) for the allocation of transmission...
This paper presents a novel method for capacitor placement in radial distribution feeders to reduce the real power loss and to improve the voltage profile. The location of the nodes where the capacitors should be placed is decided by a set of rules given by the fuzzy expert system. The sizing of the capacitors is modeled by the objective function to obtain maximum savings using Particle Swarm Optimization...
The most common way of multi-objective optimizations is assigning a weight to each objective and construct a single fitness function. In this method finding of the appropriate weights is the most important problem. The second method, which is not very well-known for power system researchers, is to optimize the objectives independently. Many optimum answers are achieved instead of a single one. These...
