Abstract
The objective of the analysis presented is to outline and validate a m ethodology for the optimization of MV distribution networks operation, so that variable loads are fed under minimum energy losses. Loss mini mization is achieved by the installation of shunt capacitors and recon figuration of the network. The impact of load variation and load model ling on the optimizing decisions is examined. Two different reconfigur ation methods are applied and compared.
