Connection of utility-interactive PV generators at the distribution level, namely PV distributed generation (PVDG), could bring many benefits to the distribution network. However, deployment of PVDG systems, in any country, requires actual data on the performance of these systems under actual...

This paper assesses the operation and management of electrical energy, hydrogen production and thermal load supplement by the Fuel Cell Power Plants (FCPP) in the distribution systems with regard to the uncertainties which exist in the load demand as well as the price of buying natural gas for...

In this paper a new method based on multi-objective modified Honey Bee Mating Optimization (MHBMO) algorithm is presented to investigate the DFR problem with the consideration effect of the renewable energy sources (RESs). In the proposed algorithm, a new mating process is suggested to overcome...

Interactive Bi-objective with Valuable Trade-off programming, together with a modified particle swarm optimization for the daily scheduling of switched capacitors is presented. The two main contradictory concerns of line loss reduction and minimum number of switching operations are considered...
