Abstract

This paper reports on research conducted on the Optimal Reconfiguration (OR) of distribution networks using Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP). It describes a new solution algorithm, called HYPER, which finds the minimum loss on/off status of line switches, shunt capacitors and distributed generators. This approach allows the full linearization of the OR problem, which can then be solved using efficient and commercially available MILP solvers like CPLEX. It stands out by its relative ease of implementation, guaranteed optimality and feasibility, range of applications and consideration of practical concerns.
