Effect of multi-unit and multi-type DG installation using integrated optimization technique in distribution power system planning

With the rise in load demand, improving the voltage profile and reducing line loss is vital to ensure reliable power delivery to the customer. However, increasing power plant generation capacity is limited by environmental and economic factors, requiring a careful assessment of locally optimal optio...

However, increasing power plant generation capacity is limited by environmental and economic factors, requiring a careful assessment of locally optimal options.

In Case Study 2, the combination of DG Types I and III provided the highest power loss reduction. With one DG Type I and two DG Type III units installed, power loss was reduced by 97.15 % to 6.41 kW for the 69-Bus RDS and by 62.01 % to 493.21 kW for the 118-Bus RDS.
