Optimal placement of distributed generators (DGs) and capacitor banks (CBs) is paramount in enhancing the efficiency of the power distribution system.

This article proposes a method for determining the suitable locations, sizes, and power factors of DG with CB units, considering the inherently unbalanced operation of the distribution network. The objective function aims to minimize power loss, improve multi-phase voltage stability, and enhance voltage balance among phases within the system. To address this complex multi-objective optimization problem, a fast and flexible radial power flow (FFRPF) technique is integrated, and an adaptive weighted aggregation method utilizing particle swarm optimization (PSO) is employed for the solution.

As the global demand for electricity rises, the efficient and reliable incorporation of PV power into electrical grid is of paramount importance. An elementary Luo converter is employed here to enhance the resultant voltage of PV array. To further improve the system’s performance, a Grey Wolf optimized radial basis function neural network (GWO-RBFNN) is employed for maximum power point tracking (MPPT). The GWO algorithm is employed to fine-tune output of RBFNN, making it capable of adaptively extract maximum power. According to the obtained MPP, the input signals to the pulse width modulation generator is tuned using the proposed hybrid MPPT controller. These pulses regulates the operation of elementary Luo converter and guarantees maximum energy conversion efficiency. The converter’s DC link voltage is subsequently subject into grid through a single-phase voltage source inverter which is synchronized with the grid. To facilitate seamless grid integration and synchronization, a conventional proportional integral (PI) controller is deployed. The simulation outputs attained using Matlab results in a robust and efficient system, capable of contributing reliable renewable energy to the grid.
