OPTIMUM DISTRIBUTED GENERATION PLACEMENT

Abstract

This paper presents a formulation for the optimum Distributed Generator (DG) placement which considers minimization of the line loss, a technical factor, and minimization of installation and maintenance cost, an economical factor. The problem is configured as a constrained optimization problem, where the optimal number of DGs, along with their sizes and bus locations, are simultaneously obtained. This problem has been solved using Genetic Algorithm(GA), a traditionally popular stochastic optimization algorithm. A 33-bus radial distribution system is considered as the case study where the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated.
