Research on Location and Capacity of Distribution Generation Considering Plug-in Electric Vehicle

Abstract

As distribution generation (DG) are more and more widely used in power system, the importance of their siting and sizing issues has been also become prominent. If the location and capacity of the DG are not properly selected, it may have a negative impact on the protection configuration, nodal voltage distribution and energy loss of the power distribution network. This paper is based on the background of distribution generation and a large number of plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) are connected to the grid, established a probability distribution model for DG and PEV, then determined the objective function considering cost and power quality, summarized the corresponding siting and sizing methods.
