Abstract |
|
Optimal allocation of distributed generators (DG) plays a significant role in improving the performance of the radial distribution system. The positive and negative impact of the distributed generators will depend on the optimal location and size of distributed generators. Therefore, this paper focuses on selecting optimal size and location for distributed generator in the radial distribution systems (RDS) to minimize power losses and improve voltage profile. Backward Forward Sweep methodology for the load flow analysis of the distribution system is used to determine the power losses in the system and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to solve the optimization problem. A 33-bus system has been taken as the test system. |
