    Abstract

    Usually, rural areas can be electrified via three-phase distribution transformers with relatively large capacities. In such areas, low voltage lines are used for long distances, which cause power losses and voltage drop for different types of consumers. Reducing losses and improving voltage profiles in rural distribution networks are significant challenges for electricity distribution companies. However different solutions were proposed in the literature to overcome these challenges, most of them face difficulties when applied in the conventional distribution network. To address the above issues, an applicable solution is proposed in this paper by installing a number

    Optimal Placement and Sizing of Distributed Generation Using Metaheuristic Algorithm

    D. Nageswari1,*, N. Kalaiarasi2, G. Geethamahalakshmi1

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.41, No.2, pp. 493-509, 2022, DOI:10.32604/csse.2022.020539 - 25 October 2021

    Abstract Power loss and voltage uncertainty are the major issues prevalently faced in the design of distribution systems. But such issues can be resolved through effective usage of networking reconfiguration that has a combination of Distributed Generation (DG) units from distribution networks. In this point of view, optimal placement and sizing of DGs are effective ways to boost the performance of power systems. The optimum allocation of DGs resolves various problems namely, power loss, voltage profile improvement, enhanced reliability, system stability, and performance. Several research works have been conducted to address the distribution system problems in… More >
