Comparative investigation of DG and DSTATCOM utilizing the PLI technique in a 33-bus radial distribution system for loss reduction

Abstract

This study offers a novel strategy that combines DG with DFACTS in support of the reactive component in order to reduce the loss related to the loss of the active component. The use of distributed generation (DG) and distributed FACTS (DFACTS) improves the Loss of voltage and power in the distribution radial line networks. The best location and size for the compensating devices have been determined using the PLI method. The experiment, which uses the widely used in distribution radial line scheme for IEEE 33-bus, shows the effectiveness of the suggested tactic
