Strategic Planning for Incorporating Inverter-Based Wind Turbine in Distribution Networks Using Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm

Incorporating wind turbines (WT) in power systems is increased around the world. Therefore, this paper introduces the optimal allocation of WT with and without enabling inverter in the radial distribution system (RDS). In addition, a recent algorithm called arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA) is utilized for determining the best sizes and locations for inverter-based WT units in RDS. The system losses are presented as a single objective function taking into accounts the probabilistic of WT output. In this paper, IEEE 69-bus RDS is utilized as a test system. Incorporating WT in RDS enhances the system voltage and decreases system loss. From the results, incorporating multiple WTs give better results than incorporating single WT, and enabling inverter with incorporating WT gives better results than incorporating WT alone in RDS. AOA algorithm proved it is effective to determine the global result as compared to efficient algorithms.
