Abstract: Recently, there has been great interest in the integration of distributed generation units at the distribution level. The foreseeable large use of DG in the future requires the distribution system engineers to properly take into account its impact in the system planning. When considering DG impact the attention should be paid in the siting and sizing of DG units. This paper proposes the use of analytical expressions for finding the optimal size and site of DG in distribution systems. Keywords: DG, sizing, siting, Exact Loss Formula, BIBC and BVBC. I. INTRODUCTION
Distributed generation unlike centralized electrical generation aims to generate electrical energy on small scale as near as possible to load centers, which provide an incremental capacity to power system. In the deregulated power market, concerns about the environment as well as economic issues have led increased interest in distributed generations. The emergence of new technological alternatives (photovoltaic systems, wind power, cogeneration, etc.) allows generating part of the required energy closer to the point of use, improving quality levels and minimizing the investments costs associated with of transmission and distribution
