in practical situations, distribution network loads are the mixtures of residential, industrial, and commercial types. this paper presents a hybrid optimization algorithm for the optimal placement of shunt capacitor banks in radial distribution networks in the presence of different voltage-dependent load models. the algorithm is based on the combination of genetic algorithm (ga) and binary part...

Whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is an emerging nature-inspired, swarm-intelligence based to solve problems more efficiently. This on the bubble-net hunting strategy of humpback whales. It has gained immense popularity among researchers, typically, due its simple nature, fast convergence, and having minimum parameters. In recent past, it been widely adopted in various fields including data mi...

Microgrid operations planning is one of the keys to ensuring safe and efficient outputs distributed energy resources (DERs) stable operation a power system in microgrid (MG). In this study, for symmetry renewable systems, coordinated control based on storage battery system, an MG dispatching model with DER conditions integrated costs established grid-connected mode, basis costs, interaction pol...

Wind power forecasting is pivotal in optimizing renewable energy generation and grid stability. This paper presents a groundbreaking optimization algorithm to enhance wind through an improved al-Biruni Earth radius (BER) metaheuristic algorithm. The BER algorithm, based on stochastic fractal search (SFS) principles, has been refined optimized achieve superior accuracy prediction. proposed denot...

Transmission network expansion planning (TNEP) is an important component of power system planning. Itdetermines the characteristics and performance of the future electric power network and influences the powersystem operation directly. Different methods have been proposed for the solution of the static transmissionnetwork expansion planning (STNEP) problem till now. But in all of them, STNEP pr...
