Abstract

In recent years there has been a considerable growth on the integration of various renewable sources and multi types of flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) in many practical power systems in the world. Hence the Distributed Generation is implemented in terms of using renewable source. The major problem faced in distribution network is power loss reduction and finding the proper location of distributed generation (DG). The main aim of the project deals with optimal placement of Distributed Generation with considering the Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices in order to minimize the total real power loss. This paper aims at improving the voltage profile in the Distribution network by optimally placing the DG with and without FACTS devices (SVC). The optimal placement of DG is done based on Voltage Stability Index. The simulation studies of proposed test systems are performed in MATLAB coding. The outcome of the coding shows that there is an improvement in the voltage profile and also there is minimization in power loss of the distribution system.
