Abstract
This paper reviews the methods employed for the optimal planning of Distributed Generation (DG) for the past few years to overcome power quality issues. The motivations, advantages of DG and the research planning are inserted to impart a brief understanding on the need of optimal DG's planning. Three types of method commonly applied by researchers in order to ascertain the proper location and size of DGs are discussed, which are analytical, heuristic and numerical methods. DGs are unavoidable from having power quality events. The most common power quality issues experienced by distribution network are voltage sags and harmonic distortion. This paper presents some methods commonly used by researchers to improve the power quality of the distribution system network.
