Abstract
Power system is undergoing a paradigm shift and new technologies are being adopted on a continuous basis to improve the operational efficiency. To cope with the increasing load demand several techniques have been manifested and amidst these Distributed Generators (DG) have outshined every other technique and brought a noteworthy change in the modern power system. The location and size of the DGs have a remarkable affect on power loss. In order to serve the forecasted peak load, DGs present themselves as one of the best alternative solutions to procrastinate the transmission and distribution expansion. This research work proposes an optimization model using parameter independent Jaya algorithm to determine optimal DG size and sites that would minimize the active and reactive power looses along with enhanced systems voltage profile ensuring. Performance of type-1 and type-3 DGs along with DSTATCOM is studied to achieve the objective.
