摘要:Since last decade, Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods have been used to solve complex DG
problems because in most cases, they can provide global or near global solution. The major
advantage of the AI methods is that they are relatively versatile for handling various qualitative
constraints. AI methods mainly include Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Expert System (ES),
Genetic Algorithm (GA), Evolutionary Programming (EP), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO)
and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The purpose of this paper is to present a new
technique, namely Adaptive Embedded Clonal Evolutionary Programming (AECEP). The
objective of the study is to employ AECEP optimization techniques for loss minimization. This
technique was developed to optimally determine the location and sizing of DG. The IEEE 41-
Bus RTS was implemented for testing several cases in terms of loading conditions..
