Abstract •Location and capacity of DG with multiple generation units are determined.•Simple and approximate model of the MINLP problem.•Search space reduction is validated using brute force algorithm.•Objective function considers power losses and generation costs. This paper deals with the subject of finding the site and size of distributed generation in distribution systems. This problem corresponds to a mixed-integer nonlinear problem which is difficult and hard to solve with classical optimization techniques. Many approaches and with different objective functions have been applied to solve it. In this paper, the problem to solve comprises multiple distributed generation sources and the objective of minimizing power losses and generation costs, both for the distributed and conventional generators. Since it is highly combinatorial, a search space reduction is needed. So, an approximate model is used to reduce the search space of the possible buses where the distributed generation has to be located. Then, for each combination of the reduced space search, a nonlinear equations system is solved by a numerical method to get the size of the distributed generation, checking the voltage limits and the lines’ capacities. To test the method, a comparison between the proposed algorithm and a force brute algorithm is performed on a 69 and 118 bus test systems. The obtained results indicate that this method find the optimal or near optimal solution in a reasonable computation time.
