Mapping of optimum placement of distributed generation in meshed power networks with appropriate technologies
Purpose: This study aims to propose a sensitivity-based methodology for the optimum accommodation of distributed generation (DG) units in meshed power networks with appropriate technologies. The effect of load variation is incorporated into the proposed methodology to identify the most trusted locat...
