Genetic Algorithm for Improving Voltage Stability by Optimal Integration of Wind Source

摘要

To modernize the electrical network, it is important to integrate the Distributed-Generation (DG)-based on wind energy sources. Such a source has already become necessary due to the limited availability of fossil fuels and the tendency to use clean energy. This work is focused on the study of the optimal integration of Wind Turbines (WT-DG) which takes into account the system constraints. This is achieved by searching for the optimal sites and sizes of WT-DGs for maximize voltage stability using a Genetic Algorithm (GA). The study is performed on the standard 30-bus modified power network using MATLAB code. The simulated results prove the voltage stability improved and power loss reduced as long as the number of WT-DGs increased in the network.
