Abstract
The management of modern distribution networks or smart grids needs the integration of new technologies and advanced software. This paper proposes the Grey Wolf Optimizer or GWO technique to determine the optimal configuration of the network in real-time in the presence of photovoltaic sources. This technique is able to establish the state of the looping switches during each hour and this according to the variation of the power load and the photovoltaic power produced. The goal function chosen is to minimize the active losses under the imposed constraints. This study was applied on a practical network, namely the Algerian distribution network under MATLAB code. The combined results showed the efficiency and robustness of the proposed technique.
