In this work, a heuristic model for integrated planning of primary distribution network and secondary distribution circuits is proposed. A Tabu Search (TS) algorithm is employed to solve the planning of primary distribution ...

The calculation of standard reliability indices is critical for assessing quality service and guiding the planning and operation of distribution systems. Traditionally, such calculation has relied on the application of ...

In this paper we proposed a new two-parameters lifetime distribution with increasing failure rate. The new distribution arises on a latent complementary risk problem base. The properties of the proposed distribution are ...

This paper seeks to explore the problem of assessing the renewable distributed generation (DG) hosting capacity of microgrids when thermal smart loads composed of electric water heaters (EWH) interfaced with electric springs ...

The risk assessment approach is useful for monitoring and supervisory control because it provides distribution operator with the capability to quantify the tradeoff between reliability and economic performance. The risk ...
