DG sources have been introduced as one of the most widely used and effective methods among various methods providing losses reduction in power systems. In this paper, the artificial bee colony algorithm has been employed with the aim of determining location and capacity of distributed generations (DGs) and capacitor banks (CBs) in distribution systems. The proposed objective function includes power losses and ENS reliability index, which is used by deploying weight coefficients as objective function in the algorithms. Accordingly, the standard 37-bus networks have been used for studies. The simulation results demonstrate that the artificial bee colony algorithm is more effective in all sections and has higher capability in reducing losses and improving reliability as well.
