Optimal MV/LV transformer allocation in distribution network for power losses reduction and cost minimization: A new multi‐objective framework

Abstract: Among distribution network planning (DNP) problems, medium voltage (MV) to low voltage (LV) transformer allocation is one of the most important and challenging ones. This article presents a multi‐objective optimization framework for solving MV/LV transformer allocation problem considering two goals: power losses and investment cost. Transformer allocation problem has been solved in three scenarios: (1) base case, (2) mid‐term planning, and (3) long‐term planning. In order to effectively and efficiently solve t… Show more

“…It should be noted that all the load blocks should be serviced via a transformer. Table 2 indicates the details of the transformers used in this research (including rated capacity, rated voltage, no-load losses and short circuit losses) [4]. This information has been adopted from the transformer data sheet.…”

“…where x t and y t coordinates are related to the transformer, x b and y b coordinates are related to the load block and k is a constant coefficient which is used to convert the direct distance (between load block and transformer) to the real one (here 1.55) [4].…”

“…Load uncertainty and the cost of LV lines have been ignored in the models. In [2], a multi‐objective crow search algorithm (MOCSA) has been employed to deal with MV/LV transformer allocation issues by minimizing power losses and overall investment costs. The research demonstrates a trade‐off between power loss and investment costs using a series of non‐dominated solutions.…”
