The deregulation and privatization of the electrical sectors in recent years have caused the distribution systems to run closer to their load capacity limit. Due to the increased power loss resulting from this, the distribution system now operates at a higher voltage than the current transmission networks. For electric power system networks to be more reliable, efficient, and cost-effective, distributed generation must be positioned and sized optimally. Allocation helps minimize active power losses and improve the voltage profile, ensuring the secure operation of the power system. Distribution network operators must meet both the quantitative and qualitative power demands of consumers while adhering to these operational requirements. In this study, the JAYA, PSO, and RAO algorithms are used to determine the optimal distributed generation placement. Various DG types, including Type-1, Type-2, Type-3, and Type-4, are considered for the IEEE-9 bus system to achieve significant power loss reduction. The JAYA, PSO, and RAO algorithms are implemented using MATLAB Toolbox and Mat-Power 7.0 to identify optimal distributed generation allocation under the most probable scenarios. Although all optimization techniques yield similar results, the RAO algorithm demonstrates faster performance compared to the others.
Keywords: Distributed Generation (DG), IEEE-9 bus, optimal size of DG, Jaya algorithm, bus voltage, power loss
