Due to the growth and expansion of cities and the unchanged distribution network, an important issue for electricity distribution companies is customer satisfaction with the quality of received power. It is clear that with the expansion of load centers, the amount of line power flow increases, that creates problems such as voltage drop and increased losses. Distribution network reconfiguration ...

The penetration of distributed generation sources and energy storage units in distribution networks is increasing. Therefore, their impact on the reliability of the network is very necessary. In this study, in order to provide an optimal energy management strategy for smart distribution network, the multi-objective optimization problem of dynamic distribution feeder reconfiguration in the pres...

Abstract: Since distribution networks have a large share of the losses in power systems, reducing losses in these networks is one of the key issues in reducing the costs of global networks, including issues Which has always been considered. In this thesis, the reconfiguration of the distribution network in the presence of distributed generation sources (DGs) with respect to two types of bus, P ...

Reconfiguration of distribution network feeders is one of the well-known and effective strategies in the distribution network to obtain a new optimal configuration for the distribution feeders by managing the status of switches in the distribution network. This study formulates the multi-objective problem of reconfiguration of a distribution network in the optimal presence of distributed genera...

Events with low probability and high impact, which annually cause high damages, seriously threaten the health of the distribution networks. Hence, more attention to the issue of enhancing network resilience and continuity of power supply, feels more than ever, all over the world. In modern distribution networks, because of the increasing presence of distributed generation resources, an alternat...
