Radial Distribution System

A distribution system is known as an interface between the central power system and its consumers. DGs are defined as small scale generation units that are connected near to customer load centres. DGs have the potential of altering power flows, system voltages, and even the performance of the integrated network. With the principle of minimizing line losses in the power systems, it is remarkably imperative to define the optimal size and location of local generations. This paper proposes Genetic Algorithm (GA) for optimal placement and sizing of distributed generation (DG) in radial distribution system by minimizing the real power loss and thus improving the voltage shape. The developed algorithm is tested on 33-bus radial distribution system. The proposed method has outperformed than the other methods in terms of the quality of solution and computational competence.

High Penetration

The use of renewable energy sources (RESs) is a need of global society. This editorial, and its associated Special Issue “Grid-Connected Renewable Energy Sources”, offer a compilation of some of the recent advances in the analysis of current power systems composed after the high penetration of distributed generation (DG) with different RESs. The focus is on both new control configurations and novel methodologies for the optimal placement and sizing of DG. The eleven accepted papers certainly provide a good contribution to control deployments and methodologies for the allocation and sizing of DG.
