| Popis: | Distributed generation (DG) has been incorporated into the distribution networks and, despite the rising prevalence of electric vehicle (EV) loads that are uncertain and cause substantial challenges in their operation, it is necessary to enhance the voltage profile, reduce power losses, and consequently improve the stability of whole networks. The recently proposed beluga whale optimisation algorithm is explored in the optimisation framework to determine the most suitable size of wind turbine generating systems (WTGS), while the optimum placements are determined by minimising the placement index (P-Index) using the distribution load flow (DLF) method. The voltage stability factor (VSF) is employed to formulate the P-Index to enhance voltage sensitivity in distribution systems. The main purpose of this article is to assess the influence of voltage-dependent, uncertain ZIP-form EV loads in order to analyse their potential in the active and reactive power operations of the distribution network while retaining the system voltage within a specified limit by significantly reducing system losses and taking distribution network-level constraints into account. The efficacy of the methodology is validated on the standard IEEE-33 test system by formulating two performance indices to determine a significant enhancement in convergence characteristics and a reduction in system losses. |
