Multi-objective whale optimization based minimization of loss, maximization of voltage stability considering cost of DG for optimal sizing and placement of DG

Abstrak

Huge need in electricity causes placement of Distribution Generation (DG)s like Photovoltaics (PV) systems in distribution side for enhancing the loadability by improving the voltage stability and minimization of loss with minimum cost. Many optimal placements of DG have done in focus of minimum loss and improving voltage profile. This Whale optimization is a new optimization technique framed with mathematics of spiral bubble-net feeding behavior of humpback whales for solving a power system multi-objective problem considering cost of the power tariff and DG. Here main objectives are minimizing loss and cost with maximization of voltage stability index. IEEE 69 power system data is used for solution of the proposed method.
