Abstract
Multi-distributed generation and compensators are one of the practical ways to improve the performance of power network. Although each of these devices increases the efficiency of distribution system, the combination of DG and compensator can be more useful. So in this study, the performance of capacitor bank (as traditional compensator) and DSTATCOM (as modern compensator) is evaluated in the distribution system with multi-DG. The load model of the network is also considered as sensitive to voltage-frequency and various customers’ daily load patterns. For getting the best result, simultaneous placement of different types of DGs and compensators is done by the combination of multi-objective whale optimization algorithm and analytical hierarchy process. Technical, economic, and environmental indices are considered as objective functions of this study. The results of the simulation using the IEEE 69-bus distribution system show the proper performance of compensators in the increasing of efficiency of DG units during the different condition of operation.
