Abstract
There are many advantages to deploying small-scale distributed generation resources. They reduce the power generation cost, enhance the system's overall voltage profile, and reduce system losses. However, misplacing them could have an adverse effect on the power system. In this paper, the optimal size and site of a distributed generation unit are determined to enhance the voltage stability of a power network. A voltage stability index is employed to determine the weakest link in the system. Then, the optimal size of the distributed generation unit is calculated. Newton-Raphson optimal power flow is employed to solve this problem. The voltage stability index enhancement and loss reduction are examined during normal, stressed loading, and contingency conditions. The simulation is carried out on IEEE 14 bus mesh system. The results show that the method used in this paper successfully improves the system's voltage stability and decreases power losses.
