Abstract Owing to the fast growth of electricity consumption, Distributed Generation (DGs) plays an important role in distribution network due to their advantages. This paper presents a novel multi-objective optimization technique called Moth Flame (MFO) for determining the optimal location and size of Distribution Generation units (DGs) in distribution systems. Due to the best size and placement of DGs installation the voltage profile is improved, minimize the system loss and reduce the investment cost of distributed generation units is also achieved. In this paper the proposed technique will be implemented on two benchmark systems, the IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 39 using MATLAB simulation program. The simulated results prove the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed technique compared to other optimization technique Harmony Search (HS). |
