Capacitors are widely used in distribution networks for energy loss reduction, reactive power compensation, voltage regulation, and for system capacity release. However, it’s important that the system is designed initially, and capacitors are applied in correct magnitude and at right node to achieve best results. The most important task for distribution engineer is to efficiently simulate the system at design stage and later apply optimum capacitance injection. The work presented in this paper proposes a cost minimization algorithm using a unique mathematical model along with Monty carlo simulation to choose optimal value of capacitors, both fixed and switching based on total minimum cost algorithm.
