The rapid growth of distributed generation (DG) and load has highlighted the necessity optimizing their ways integration, as siting sizing significantly impact distribution networks. However, little attention been paid to new substations which are be installed. This paper proposes deep learning-aided joint DG-substation in network stochastic expansion planning. First, model depends on an accura...

In this paper a variable’s involved in assessing the quality of a distributed generation system are reviewed, aiming to minimize the electric power losses (unused power consumption) and optimize the voltage profile. To provide this assessment, several experiments have been made to the IEEE 34-bus test case and various actual test cases with the respect of multiple DG units. The possibility and ...

This paper presents a chaotic artificial bee colony (CABC) algorithm for optimal placement and sizing of DGs on distribution systems with an aim of reducing the power losses and improving voltage stability. The exploitation ability of solutions to the food searching process is improved in the CABC algorithm to avoid the premature convergence of an artificial bee colony algorithm. The proposed a...

In this paper, the approach focused on the variables involved in assessing the quality of a distributed generation system are reviewed in detail, for its investigation and research contribution. The aim to minimize the electric power losses (unused power consumption) and optimize the voltage profile for the power system under investigation. To provide this assessment, several experiments have b...

Iran has several potential for using renewable energies, so use them could significantly contribute to energy supply. The purpose of this paper is to identify the potential of the country and select the appropriate DG technologies with consideration the potential and primary energy resources in the regions. In this context, hybrid energy systems proportionate with the potential of different reg...

Recent developments in the electric power and problems arising from construction and maintenance of large power plants have raised a great deal of interest in distributed power generation (DG). Distributed generation units due to specifications, technology and location network connectivity can improve system and load point reliability indices. In this paper, the placement and sizing of Distribu...

There are several profits of distributed generator (DG) units which believed for improving the safety distribution power grids. However, these can be maximized by ensuring optimum sizing and positioning DG because an arbitrary location may adversely affect jeopardize grids could contribute to maximising loss degradation voltage profile. Therefore, approaches were suggested ensure position size ...
