Abstract

In the last few years, the integration of renewable distributed generation (RDG) in the electrical distribution network (EDN) has become a favorable solution that guarantees and keeps a satisfying balance between electrical production and consumption of energy. In this work, various metaheuristic algorithms were implemented to perform the validation of their efficiency in delivering the optimal allocation of both RDGs based on multiple photovoltaic distributed generation (PVDG) and wind turbine distributed generation (WTDG) to the EDN while considering the uncertainties of their electrical energy output as well as the load demand’s variation during all the year’s seasons. The convergence characteristics and the results reveal that the marine predator algorithm was effectively the quickest and best technique to attain the best solutions after a small number of iterations compared to the rest of the utilized algorithms, including particle swarm optimization, the whale optimization algorithm, moth flame optimizer algorithms, and the slime mold algorithm. Meanwhile, as an example, the marine predator algorithm minimized the seasonal active losses down to 56.56% and 56.09% for both applied networks of IEEE 33 and 69-bus, respectively. To reach those results, a multi-objective function (MOF) was developed to simultaneously minimize the technical indices of the total active power loss index (APLI) and reactive power loss index (RPLI), voltage deviation index (VDI), operating time index (OTI), and coordination time interval index (CTII) of overcurrent relay in the test system EDNs, in order to approach the practical case, in which there are too many parameters to be optimized, considering different constraints, during the uncertain time and variable data of load and energy production.
