Distribution systems management is becoming an increasingly complicated issue due to the introduction of new technologies, new energy trading strategies and new deregulated environment. In the new deregulated energy market and considering the incentives coming from the technical and economical fields, it is reasonable to consider Distributed Generation (DG) as a viable option to solve the lacking...
The seamless integration of renewable distributed generation (DG) units into distribution system has become one of the most challenging research aspects in the recent years. The systematic deployment of renewable DG units can improve distribution system performance in terms of voltage support, loss minimisation, emission reduction, and reliability improvement. It is important to consider technical...
This paper presents an application of Ant Colony System Algorithm (ACS) to solve electrical distribution planning problems. This model constitutes an improved version of the ant system algorithm, permitting to generate food routes from their nest, and where a set of artificial ants are cooperating in order to find a good route through the data exchange contained by the pheromone deposits in several...
This paper proposes a project prioritizing method for investment decision in electrical energy distribution networks, based on a multi objective genetic algorithm. This problem is associated with the planning of electrical energy distribution networks, involving specifically the projects prioritization for the determination of an optimized indicative plan of investment in a short term horizon. This...
Sites and capacities of substation is one of the key issues for distribution system planning, with the influences of load reliability and network structure. Now days, more influences of substation on society and environment have been concerned by people, and substation planning must be carried out according to the corresponding factors, besides economic cost. This paper presents a new approach for...
In order to reduce the tremendous loss brought about by the overwhelming nature disasters on power supply system, the establishment of a certain amount of distributed generation systems at different level load nodes is taken into account in this paper. A multi-objective mathematical model considering construction investment, network loss as well as network deferred cost is proposed, and a type of...
This paper introduces a novel approach to the task of identifying an optimal plan for electrical distribution networks, a problem which is set to increase in complexity as distribution networks shift away from a relatively ??passive?? operational regime, towards a future of flexible, dynamically controlled networks. Such a shift in the fundamental operational philosophy of distribution networks will...
With the increasing share of distributed generation in electrical energy supply, the proper planning procedure for using these units, has become more vital for power system planners. In this paper, the application of multi-objective optimization techniques for siting, sizing and determination of the proper technology to be used, has been investigated in such a way that, the load demand during the...
