The conventional multi-objective location method of distributed generation mainly uses the static stability index to determine the load of distributed generation, which is vulnerable to the impact of load timing characteristics, resulting in a high active power loss of different nodes. Therefore, it is necessary to design the multi-objective location method of small-capacity distributed power sources based on the timing characteristics. That is, the multi-objective location algorithm of small capacity distributed generation is designed based on the multi-objective function, and the multi-objective location model of small capacity distributed generation is constructed according to the timing characteristics to achieve the multi-objective location of small capacity distributed generation. The experimental results show that the designed multi-objective location method has low active power loss, which proves that the designed location method has good location effect, energy saving and certain application value, and has made a certain contribution to saving the comprehensive operation cost of distributed power generation.
