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 ...

Distribution systems commonly operate with a radial topology, so all models of optimization problems in these distribution systems should consider radiality in their formulation. This work presents a literature review, a ...

This work presents a novel strategy to solve a short-term planning problem for electrical distribution systems (EDSs) by taking advantage of the implementation of a simplification technique. This simplification technique ...

This paper presents a new model for optimal integrated planning of medium and low voltage distribution systems with penetration of distributed generation (DG) in the low voltage network. The proposed bilevel model takes ...

The electrical distribution system (EDS) has undergone major changes in the last decade due to the increasing integration of distributed generation (DG), particularly renewable energy DG. Since renewable energy resources ...
