The aim of this research is to evaluate the performance of the distribution network by connecting wind distributed generation (DG) and determining the optimal location and size using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique, once the wind DG is connected at the optimal location, the output of wind turbines is not constant but varies with changes in wind speed. Wind turbines are designed to generate the energy from the wind. As the output of the wind turbines changes, it influences the power flow and voltage levels in the distribution network. The injection of power from the wind turbines can cause variations in voltages within the distribution network. Additionally, the changing power flow may contribute to power losses in the distribution system. In this paper, the voltages and active power losses are evaluated with the change in wind speed for the IEEE 15 Bus system by conducting load flow analysis in MATLAB. The results reveal optimized solutions that contribute to reduced power losses, increased renewable energy generation, and improved voltage profiles. This research underscores the potential of PSO-based optimization in conforming more efficient and sustainable distribution networks.
