Abstract

In this paper a Genetic Algorithm (GA) method based on graphs theory is proposed to determine the distribution network reconfiguration in presence of wind turbine based DG considering all technical and topological constraints. The objective function considered in this study is the minimization of real power loss. A detailed performance analysis is applied on (33 bus, 69 bus and 84 bus networks) to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Then this method was validated on Algerian distribution network (116 bus).
