The load patterns in electricity markets are changing rapidly worldwide. The power engineers are becoming more vigilant in providing an uninterrupted power supply at different loading conditions. This study proposes a unique planning strategy of reactive power (VAr) considering a static load...

The high penetration of distributed generation (DG) is a new challenge for traditional distribution systems. Power injections from DG units change network power flows, thereby influencing system losses and voltage stability. This paper presents a new multiobjective index (IMO)-based analytical...
