Abstract :
In this paper a new method for placement of DG (distributed generation) units in distribution networks has been presented. This method is based on two factors: analysis of power flow continuation and determination of the most sensitive voltage buses to collapse voltage. This method has been executed on a typical 34-bus test system. Efficiency of proposed method in improvement of voltage profile and reduction of power losses is verified by analytical and simulation results. Also the method may cause to increase of capacity saving, maximum loadability voltage stability margin
