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

Grid-friendly interaction is the basis for a zero-energy building to achieve its annual energy
balance goals through participation in renewable power sharing with grids and is therefore …

A genetic algorithm (GA) is employed to search for the optimal supply restoration strategy in
distribution networks. An 'integer permutation'encoding scheme is adopted in which each …

A survey of publications in the area of distribution system reconfiguration for loss reduction is
presented. The prevailing world social, political, and economic climates dictate that every …

Network reconfiguration for loss reduction in distribution systems is a very important way to
save energy. However, due to its nature it is an inherently difficult optimisation problem. A …

The shipboard power system (SPS) supplies energy to electric equipment on ships. It is
critical for the system to be reconfigurable for the purpose of survivability and reliability. In …

Heuristic search algorithms based on some heuristic rules are proposed to reach the
desired switching operations through which power transformer and distribution feeder load …

This paper describes the implementation of an algorithm which predicts optimum
reconfiguration plan for power distribution system with multiple PV generators. Since …

Application of Artificial Intelligence technologies (mainly in the form of Expert Systems) to
power systems has been an active area of research for about a decade and significant …

The distribution losses significantly affect the system's operational costs and voltage profile
that can be reduced by network reconfiguration. However, load power is not constant and …
