The use of fossil fuels for energy demand is overgrowing, leading to a higher CO2 emission. Besides, these resources have fluctuating prices and have higher operating costs. Thus, the integration of renewable energy (RE) sources has been increasing throughout the years to reduce the dependency on fossil fuel generation. However, RE generations have high initial costs and intermittent resources. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct technical and economic analysis before the installation of any hybrid energy systems. This study proposes the installation of a PV system for a residential building in Tehran, Iran. The goal of the system is to have a PV system for peak demand reduction. Moreover, the input data also includes economic parameters such as costs of PV, battery, and grid purchases alongside interest rates. Sensitivity analysis also conducted in this study to investigate the variation of load profiles on the optimal system configuration. The simulation results show a 422-kW grid-connected PV system with battery storage is the most optimal system for the selected location. The system has a lower Net Present Cost (NPC) and initial capital compared to other configurations. Moreover, the system also has a higher RE generation and lower energy import from the grid.

“…In the previous literature it is recorded that around 13% [3] of the total power production is lost in the DS as line losses. According to Indian records, distribution losses are around 21% [4]. From the past several years, power systems are transforming from centralized power generating state with power plants connected to the transmission system to the decentralized power generating state [5], with small power generating units directly connected to distribution systems.…”

“…Hence, it is essential to look towards the techniques that minimize the above drawbacks. Distributed / dispersed / decentralized generation [7] placement [1,2,4], network feeder re-configuration [3,[8][9][10][11], capacitor placement [12,13] and load balancing [14] are the major techniques used for the power loss minimization and enhancement of system voltage. From the past couple of years, renewable energy based DG placement is being extensively used as it provides many technical, financial and ecological benefits [2].…”

Indian practical rural distribution systems are very long and spread over a wide range of area. The nodes far away from the distribution substation are suffering from low voltage. In India, total distribution system losses are around 20% to 25%. From the past few years, penetration of distributed generation (DG) in to the distribution network/system is increasing expeditiously. DG allocation with appropriate location and size can provide numerous benefits to the distribution companies as well as to the society. In this regard, a new technique called combined sensitivity index (CSI), to find the optimal DG unit location, based on voltage sensitivity and network load magnitude is proposed. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed technique, it is tested on Indian practical 52-bus rural distribution system. The results obtained with the proposed CSI technique is compared with the results obtained with the combined power loss sensitivity (CPLS) technique. Here, the optimal DG unit size is calculated using Bird Swarm Algorithm (BSA). The results show that the proposed CSI technique performs better in minimizing power losses and voltage profile augmentation when compared to existing CPLS technique.
