PublicationIntegration of Multiple Distributed Generation Sources in Radial Distribution System Using a Hybrid Evolutionary Programming-Firefly Algorithm(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2024-02-29)
;Nik Hasmadi Nik Hassan ; ; ; ; ;Ismail MusirinSazwan IshakThis paper presents an approach for the optimal integration of multiple distributed generation (DG) sources in a radial distribution system. The integration of DG sources poses various challenges such as can lead to higher power losses caused by reverse power flow, voltage exceeding secure limits, voltage stability, power quality, and economic operation. To address these challenges, a hybrid algorithm is proposed which combines the benefits of both Evolutionary Programming and Firefly Algorithm. The proposed hybrid Evolutionary - Firefly Algorithm is employed for the determination of the optimal size of the DG sources. The objective of the proposed algorithm is to minimize the total system power losses and improve the voltage profile. The algorithm considers various constraints including the DG capacity limits and voltage limits. A comprehensive case study is conducted on a radial distribution system to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The simulation results show that the hybrid algorithm can find the optimal size and location of DG sources while achieving the desired system performance. The integration of multiple DG sources leads to a significant reduction in power losses and improved voltage profile. Furthermore, the proposed approach provides a flexible framework for the optimal integration of DG sources in radial distribution systems, allowing for the accommodation of different types and capacities of DG sources. The proposed technique is tested on the IEEE Reliability Test systems, specifically the IEEE 69-bus. The combination of DG at bus 61 and bus 27 yields a loss reduction index of 94%. -
PublicationA comparative study on DG placement using marine predator and Osprey algorithms to enhance loss reduction index in the distribution system(Iran University of Science and Technology, 2025-06)
; ; ; ; ;Syazwan Ahmad SabriIsmail MusirinThe Marine Predator Algorithm (MPA) and Osprey Optimization Algorithm (OOA) are nature-inspired metaheuristic techniques used for optimizing the location and sizing of distributed generation (DG) in power distribution systems. MPA simulates marine predators' foraging strategies through Lévy and Brownian movements, while OOA models the hunting and survival tactics of ospreys, known for their remarkable fishing skills. Effective placement and sizing of DG units are crucial for minimizing network losses and ensuring cost efficiency. Improper configurations can lead to overcompensation or undercompensation in the network, increasing operational costs. Different DG technologies, such as photovoltaic (PV), wind, microturbines, and generators, vary significantly in cost and performance, highlighting the importance of selecting the right models and designs. This study compares MPA and OOA in optimizing the placement of multiple DGs with two types of power injection which are active and reactive power. Simulations on the IEEE 69-bus reliability test system, conducted using MATLAB, demonstrated MPA’s superiority, achieving a 69% reduction in active power losses compared to OOA’s 61%, highlighting its potential for more efficient DG placement in power distribution systems. The proposed approach incorporates a DG model encompassing multiple technologies to ensure economic feasibility and improve overall system performance.
