Distribution system reliability enhancement with TLBO algorithm using demand response and electric vehicles.

In the world of modern era we find many techniques for enhancement of reliability in distribution networks and meeting the consumer demand by provision of quality and incessant power supply. Amidst the various techniques, in this study, we opt for demand response (DR) and charging/discharging of electrical vehicles (EV's) are evaluated to ameliorating reliability for radially distributed power system by adopting teaching learning based optimization (TLBO) algorithm. This analysis is considered due to the contribution of technologies like are DR and EV's for reducing the usage of conventional sources and enhancing the air quality. Here in this paper we are adopting reliability evaluation by considering energy expected not supplied (EENS) and loss of load expected (LOLE)where the characteristics of distribution network contains load and voltage profile. This paper provides a new optimization approach for finding the optimal solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
