This paper presents a proposed function which is known as techno-economic model for optimal placement of distributed generation (DG) resources in distribution systems in order to minimize the power losses and improve voltage profile. Combined sensitivity factors (CSF), such real power loss reduction index, reactive power loss reduction index, voltage profile improvement index, and life cycle cost, and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are applied to the proposed technique to obtain the best compromise between these costs. Simulation results on IEEE 14-bus test system are presented to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed procedure.

This research work has presented the application of distributed generation (DG) units in a simultaneous placement approach on IEEE 33 radial test systems for validation of the technique with further implementation on 56-Bus Hayin Rigasa feeder. The genetic algorithm (GA) is employed in obtaining the optimal sizes and load loss sensitivity index for locations of the DGs for entire active and reactive power loss reduction. The voltage profile index is computed for each bus of the networks to ascertain the weakest voltage bus of the network before and after DG and circuit breaker allocation. The simultaneous placement approach of the DGs is tested with the IEEE 33-bus test networks and Hayin Rigasa feeder network and the results obtained are confirmed by comparing with the results gotten from separate DGs allocation on the networks. For IEEE 33-bus system, the simultaneous allocation of DGs and of optimal sizes 750 kW, 800 kW and at locations of buses 2 and 6 respectively, lead to a 66.49 % and 68.64 % drop in active and reactive power loss and 3.02 % improvement in voltage profile. For the 56-bus Hayin Rigasa network in Kaduna distribution network, the simultaneous placement of DGs of sizes 1,470 kW and 1490 kW at locations of bus 16 and 23 respectively, lead to a 79.54 % and 73.98 % drop in active and reactive power loss and 15.94 % improvement in voltage profile. From results comparison, it is evident that the allocation of DGs using the combination GA and load loss sensitivity index, gives an improved performance in relations to power loss reduction and voltage profile improvements of networks when compared to without DGs.

Installation of distribution generation (DG) in the distribution system gains many technical benefits. To obtain more benefits, the location and size of DG must be selected with the appropriate values. This paper presents a method for optimizing location and size of DG in the distribution system based on enhanced sunflower optimization (ESFO) to minimize power loss of the system. In which, based on the operational mechanisms of the original sunflower optimization (SFO), a mutation technique is added for updating the best plant. The calculated results on the 33 nodes test system have shown that ESFO has proficiency for determining the best location and size of DG with higher quality than SFO. The compared results with the previous methods have also shown that ESFO outperforms to other methods in term of power loss reduction. As a result, ESFO is a reliable approach for the DG optimization problem.

This paper proposes a chaotic stochastic fractal search algorithm (CSFSA) method to solve the reconfiguration problem for minimizing the power loss and improving the voltage profile in distribution systems. The proposed method is a metaheuristic method developed for overcoming the weaknesses of the conventional SFSA with two processes of diffuse and update. In the first process, new points will be created from the initial points by the Gaussian walk. For the second one, SFSA will update better positions for the particles obtained in the diffusion process. In addition, this study has also integrated the chaos theory to improve the SFSA diffusion process as well as increase the rate of convergence and the ability to find the optimal solution. The effectiveness of the proposed CSFSA has been verified on the 33-bus, 84-bus, 119-bus, and 136-bus distribution systems. The obtained results from the test cases by CSFSA have been verified to those from other natural methods in the literature. The result comparison has indicated that the proposed method is more effective than many other methods for the test systems in terms of power loss reduction and voltage profile improvement. Therefore, the proposed CSFSA can be a very promising potential method for solving the reconfiguration problem in distribution systems.

Power Loss Reduction

The electrical distribution system has experienced a number of important changes due to the integration of distributed and renewable energy resources. Optimal integration of distributed generators (DGs) and distribution network reconfiguration (DNR) of the radial network have significant impacts on the power system. The main aim of this study is to optimize the power loss reduction and DG penetration level increment while keeping the voltage profile improvements with in the permissible limit. To do so, a hybrid of analytical approach and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are proposed. The proposed approach was tested on 33-bus and 69-bus distribution networks, and significant improvements in power loss reduction, DG penetration increment, and voltage profile were achieved. Compared with the base case scenario, power loss was reduced by 89.76% and the DG penetration level was increased by 81.59% in the 69-bus test system. Similarly, a power loss reduction of 82.13% and DG penetration level increment of 80.55% was attained for the 33-bus test system. The simulation results obtained are compared with other methods published in the literature.
