Optimal integration of distributed generation (DG) into the distribution system results in reduced power losses and improved bus voltages. In this article, a combination of two techniques has been analyzed: The integration of DG and reconfiguration of the distribution system by removing the Normally Open Point NOP in different places of the system. These two techniques are applied to a real distribution network " distribution network of Kenitra city in Morroco", considering as key objectives the reduction of power loss and improvement of voltage profile. To investigate the effectiveness and robustness of our system a model was performed using ETAP. The simulation results improve that we can minimize greatly the power losses in the distribution network by the implementation of DGs and reconfiguring our distribution network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
