A novel approach for multiple DG allocation in distribution system of jaipur city

A novel approach has been proposed in this paper to find out optimal position of DG units in radial distribution system. An objective function is formulated to find out the optimal size, quantity and position of DG units for real power loss reduction and voltage profile enhancement. A new mathematical expression, Power Voltage Sensitivity Constant (PVSC), has been proposed to solve the allocation problem. The total size of DG units is also restricted up to 50% of total load of system. The results of the proposed technique are validated on standard IEEE 33 bus system and 130 bus real distribution system of Jamawaramgarh, Jaipur city. The obtained results are compared with latest optimization techniques to show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach.
