Multi-objective Dynamic Expansion Planning of Active Meshed Distribution Network: Sizing, Siting, and Timing of Hub and Voltage Regulators

Distribution network expansion planning is a technique for managing the system effectively in face of future challenges. This work investigates design mesh distribution to allocate substations, DGs, voltage regulators, feeder routing, switch placement, and integration multiple energy carrier systems. Dynamic modeling multi-objective proposed this study identify optimal plan operational strategy. The uncertainties related electricity, heat load, their prices are considered process. A 54-Bus applied evaluate methodology discuss results.
