The accuracy of the prediction of buildings' energy consumption is being tackled using
existing artificial intelligence techniques. However, there is a lack of effort on the …

Distributed generation (DG) aims to generate part of the required electrical energy on a
small scale closer to the places of consumption. Integration of DG into an existing electric …

Normally consumers faced so many power interruption problems in the power distribution
network. The distribution network is interrupted because of the power loss problems occurs …

Optimal capacitor placement and network reconfiguration are well-known methods to
minimize losses, enhance reliability, and improve the voltage profile of electric distribution …

The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is widely used to solve a variety of
complicated engineering problems. However, PSO may suffer from an effective balance …

All over the world, the operators of the power distribution networks (DNs) are still looking for
