In this research, a meta-heuristic-based hybrid algorithm was used to optimize the power dispatch of numerous Distributed Generators (DGs) in a Radial Distribution System (RDS) for hourly fluctuating seasonal loads in order to reduce losses and voltage variations while also saving money. With hourly seasonal load changes, renewable DGs like PV, Wind, and Hybrid (PV+Wind) were used. The HA is proposed in this paper as a way to achieve successful outcomes by merging two meta-heuristic algorithms. The findings of the HA are compared with Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Shuffled Frog Leap Algorithm (SFLA), and Jaya Algorithm (JA) when they are applied to a standard IEEE 33 bus RDS and PG&E 69 bus RDS. According to the test findings simulated in the MATLAB environment, Hybrid Algorithm (HA) beat GA, PSO, SFLA, and JA in terms of optimal power dispatch of numerous DGs to minimise losses and voltage variations, as well as the cost-benefit analysis of renewable DGs energy generation.
