Abstract
The optimal placement of distributed generation (DG) in power distribution systems involves identifying the best locations for the generators to be installed and sizing them appropriately, to optimize the performance of the system. In this paper, the recently proposed nature-inspired optimization algorithm namely: Dandelion Optimizer (DO) has been used for the optimal placement and sizing of DG in the radial distribution network. The objectives are to minimize active power loss and voltage deviation and to enhance the voltage stability of the distribution network. The efficiency of the proposed method has been verified over the IEEE 33-bus and Algerian 112-bus distribution systems. The result comparisons indicated that the proposed method can obtain higher quality solutions than many other methods for the considered scenarios from the test systems. Therefore, the DO algorithm can be a very effective method for solving the optimal allocation of the DG problem.
