Selection of Location and Power of Photovoltaic Plant in Distribution Network using Fuzzy Logic
The paper presents an algorithm for determining the optimal connection location and power of a photovoltaic plant in a distribution network. The proposed algorithm is based on the use of the fuzzy logic and power flow calculation method. The fuzzy logic is used for the selection of candidate buses for the photovoltaic plant connection, while load flow analysis is used for the verification of voltage conditions and power losses in the distribution network. For each of the candidate buses photovoltaic plant of a certain power range was considered. The practical application of the considered algorithm was demonstrated on a part of Sarajevo's 10 kV distribution network.
