Development of distributed generation assessment tool considering multi-system constraints for evaluating initial grid connection

Assessment of distributed generation (DG) is a complicated task and it is a primary importance step in designing and planning of DG installation in distribution systems. The installation of DG units at non-appropriate location and sizing can result in an increasing in power losses and violations of...
