Distribution systems play an important role, delivering the electric power of generation
system to individual consumers. Distribution system reconfiguration (DSR) is a large-scale …

Highly Integrated Community Energy Systems (ICES) greatly but not solely dependent on
combined heat and power (CHP) sources are a viable approach for dealing effectively with …

This paper proposes a mixed-integer conic programming formulation for the minimum loss
distribution network reconfiguration problem. This formulation has two features: first, it …

Electrical distribution network reconfiguration is a complex combinatorial optimization
process aimed at finding a radial operating structure that minimizes the system power loss …

We derive new mixed-integer quadratic, quadratically constrained, and second-order cone
programming models of distribution system reconfiguration, which are to date the first …

The loss minimum reconfiguration problem in the open loop radial distribution system is
basically one of complex combinatorial optimization, since the normal open sectionalizing …

This book explores how developing solutions with heuristic tools offers two major
advantages: shortened development time and more robust systems. It begins with an …

This paper presents an improved tabu search (ITS) algorithm for loss-minimization
reconfiguration in large-scale distribution systems. TS algorithm is an efficient meta-heuristic …

This paper presents allocation of power losses to consumers connected to radial distribution
networks before and after network reconfiguration in a deregulated environment. Loss …

A three-phase distribution system state estimation algorithm is proposed in this paper. The
normal equation method is used to compute the real-time states of distribution systems …
