Abstract

The particle swarm optimisation and gravitational search optimisation algorithm (PSOGSA) is a hybrid algorithm which is used to determine size of optimal Distributed Generation (DG) in this paper. The PSOGSA integrates the social thinking ability (gbest) in PSO to capability of local search in GSA. The algorithm combines the searching capability of PSO and with enhanced exploration ability of GSA. Distributed generations are connected in distribution systems to consumers to reduce losses, enhance the voltage profile, reliability and economic benefits. DG optimal positioning and loss minimisation have a significant role for economic operation and overall reduction of energy costs. For evaluation of proposed algorithm, the test bus sets IEEE15, 33 and 69 are chosen. For considered objectives i.e., optimal DG sizing and economic analysis, this PSOGSA algorithm gives better results as compared to other methods and better outcomes has been achieved when DG unit of type III operates at power factor of 0.9 lag
