Integrated distribution systems planning to improve reliability under load growth

Abstract—In this paper, an integrated methodology is proposed for planning distribution networks in which the operation of distributed generators (DGs) and cross-connections (CCs) is optimally planned. Distribution lines and high-voltage/medium-voltage (HV/MV) transformers are also optimally upgrade...
