"Analytical Approaches for Optimal Placement of Distributed Generation Sources in Power Systems"

Abstract-Distributed generation (DG) can be used to generate a customer's entire electricity supply; for peak shaving; for standby or emergency generation; as a green power source; or for increased reliability. Analytical approaches for optimal placement of DG with unity power factor in power systems are presented. Placement of DG in a radial feeder is analyzed and the theoretical optimal site (bus) for adding DG is obtained for different types of loads and DG sources. The proposed methods are tested by a series of simulations on radial feeders to show the effectiveness of the proposed methods in determining the optimal bus for placing DG.
