Descripción
Sumario:This paper proposes a hybrid algorithm for capacity configuration optimization of a solar PV-battery-based micro-grid. The hybrid algorithm (BAPSO), which is a combination of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Bat Algorithm (BA), is designed to optimize the solar generation location and capacity for the efficient performance of a micro-grid. The algorithm considers dynamic transmission power loss optimization and integrates PSO and BA algorithms’ respective advantages to form a hybrid algorithm. The proposed algorithm combines PSO’s fast convergence ability with the less computation time ability of BA to better optimal solution by incorporating the BA’s frequency into the PSO velocity equation to control the pace. The design from the proposed algorithm is tested and validated on IEEE 30 bus test system. The transmission power loss before implementing the algorithm was 22 kW and reduced to 20 kW after the algorithm is used. A further reduction of 0.3 kW of losses is observed by placing the solar generation system at bus number 29.
