Abstract

The key performance indicators of the electrical distribution system are its efficiency, the line voltage regulation, system’s voltage stability and its reliability. For mitigation of the issues related to these performance measures, the distributed generation (DG) integration to the distribution network is being considered as the most viable alternative. In addition to this, the integration of distributed generation in the distribution system will serve to meet the ever-increasing electricity demand on the distribution system and at the same time if the DG system is renewable energy based, it acts to serve another major concern of environment protection. The presented system proposes DG placement considering reactive power loss minimization. System’s voltage profile and voltage stability is affected by reactive power loss taking place in the system. When DG is placed with respect to reactive power loss minimization it enhances system voltage profile and stability and at the same time reduces system’s active power loss as well.
