Abstract

Recently, distributed generation (DG) has gained lots of attention due to a variety of benefits it can bring to the traditional power produce and distribution system. Identify the optimal location and size of DG in the distribution network is one of the crucial problems of DG integration, because a non-optimal planning might cause some adverse effects. In this paper, an optimization model with the consideration of minimizing energy losses is formulated first, and then an optimization methodology based on the Self-organizing Optimization Algorithm (SOA) is proposed. Finally, a case study is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed procedure.
