Title A name given to the resource Political Optimizer Algorithm for Optimal Location and Sizing of Photovoltaic Distribution Generation in Electrical Distribution Network Subject The topic of the resource Distribution generation; Electrical distribution network; Loss minimization; Photovoltaic system; Political optimizer; Voltage profile; Voltage stability index Description An account of the resource In this paper, the political optimizer (PO), a new and efficient socio-inspired meta-heuristic search algorithm, is proposed for the first time in this research for determining the ideal locations and capacities of photovoltaic (PV) distribution generation (DG) in electrical distribution networks (EDN). A multi-objective function is designed to lower distribution losses and voltage deviation indexes and maximize voltage stability, among other objectives. The computational efficiency of PO when solving the optimal allocation of PV systems in EDN is investigated on an IEEE 33-bus EDN. The results indicate that integrating small DGs at multiple locations has a better EDN performance than integrating a single significant DG in the network. The results also suggest that, as demonstrated by a comparative analysis of PO results and those of other related literature works, PO can deal with complex multi-variable optimization problems. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
