A review on techniques for placement of distributed generators

The integration of Distributed Generation (DG) in distribution system is growing very fast since last decade. The integration of DG is beneficial if DG of optimal size is placed at optimal site. The optimal placement of DG (OPDG) helps the distribution system planners to conquer maximum benefits of DG integration. Many techniques are reported in literature to solve OPDG problem. This paper presents the state of art review of the OPDG techniques.
