Abstract

Distributed generation (DG) is becoming a prominent key spot for research in recent years because it can be utilized in emergency/reserve plans for power systems and power quality improvement issues, besides its drastic impact on the environment as a greenhouse gas (GHG) reducer. For maximizing the benefits from such technology, it is crucial to identify the best size and location for DG that achieves the required goal of installing it. This paper presents an investigation of the optimized allocation of DG in different modes using a proposed hybrid technique, the tunicate swarm algorithm/sine-cosine algorithm (TSA/SCA). This investigation is performed on an IEEE-69 Radial Distribution System (RDS), where the impact of such allocation on the system is evaluated by NEPLAN software.
