Optimal Location of WT based Distributed Generation in Pool based Electricity Market using Mixed Integer Non Linear Programming

Abstract

In this paper, analysis a Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) approach has been utilized for determining optimal location and number of distributed generators considering minimization of fuel cost of conventional and Wind turbine power. The pattern of nodal real and reactive power prices have been obtained with and without Wind turbine integration. The results are also obtained for, loss reduction, fuel cost saving and voltage profile. The impact of different load models as PQ load and Zip load model has been studied. The proposed MINLP based optimization approach has been applied for IEEE24 bus reliability test system.
