- Description
- Power system has to be stable and reliable for its users. Nevertheless, due to the aging and ignorance, it tends to be unreliable and unstable. Distributed Generation (DG) is a small-scale energy production which are usually connected towards the load. It helps in the reduction of power losses and improvement of profile of voltage in a distribution network. However, if a DG is not optimally placed and sized, it will rather lead to an increase in a power loss and also deteriorates the voltage profile. This report exhibits the importance of DG placement and sizing in a distribution network using Genetic Algorithm (GA). Apart from the optimum DG placement and sizing, different scenarios with numbers of DGs is also being analyzed in this report. On eastern grid of Bhutan, a detailed analysis for its performance is carried out through MATLAB platform to demonstrate and study the effectiveness and reliability of a methodology that is being proposed. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
