Black hole optimizer for the optimal power injection in distribution networks using DG

The optimal sizing of Distributed Generators (DG) in electric power distribution networks is carried out through a metaheuristic optimization strategy. To size DG it is proposed an optimal power flow model is formulated by considering that the location of these sources has been previously defined by the distribution company. The solution of the optimal power flow is reached with the Black Hole Optimizer (BHO). A methodology is used master-slave optimization methodology, where the BHO (i.e., master stage) defines the sizes of the DG and the slave stage evaluates the objective function with a load flow algorithm, this work using the triangular-based power flow method. Numerical results in the 33-node and the 69-node test system demonstrates the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach when compared with literature results. © 2021 Institute of Physics Publishing.
