An Introduction to Multiobjective Optimisation Methods for Decentralised Power Planning

摘要

Optimising the placement and sizing of distributed generators into decentralised power networks is receiving increasing research attention. The studies presented thus far, however, do not capitalise on the most contemporary techniques described in the multiobjective optimisation literature. This work illustrates, through both theoretical and empirical analyses, the consequences of this deficiency and provides a tutorial on how best to integrate core multiobjective concepts into the optimisation process. Initial results suggest that such integration may be of significant value to both researchers and design-engineers alike.
