Abstract: Stochastic nature of load demand has a great impact on the performance of electrical power system. As a result, planning of electrical power system considering load uncertainties became inevitable. This paper presents Monte Carlo simulation based different bio-inspired algorithms, grey wolf optimization (GWO), manta ray foraging optimization (MRFO), satin bower bird optimization (SBO) and whale optimization (WOA) to optimize locations of three DG units under load uncertainties considering 500 scenarios. Each scenario includes 50 iterations which means that for each run we have 25,000 iterations and 500 characteristics for different load value. Two objectives are achieved. Firstly, statistically finding the optimal probabilistic location of three DG units under load uncertainties in IEEE 33-bus and IEEE 69-bus radial distribution system based on Monte Carlo simulation integrated with different bio-inspired algorithms. Secondly, comparing between the performances of four different bio-inspired algorithms. Three objective functions are considered, minimizing active power loss, minimizing voltage deviation and maximizing voltage stability index. The active and reactive power demand are normally distributed using normal distribution function. The optimal probabilistic location is investigated considering two cases under load uncertainties, optimizing location of three DG units generally and optimizing location of one DG unit assuming two optimum locations for the other two units extracted from case I. The obtained results (after placing DG units) are compared to the base case (DG units are not connected) and compared to each other according to the optimization technique. The results show that, SBO algorithm superiors other algorithms almost in all cases. Comes next GWO which provide good results generally. However, the good performance obtained by MRFO, it consumes twice the time of other algorithms. WOA however fast convergence, it provides results worse than other algorithms. The system is applied to the well-known IEEE 33-bus and IEEE 69-bus radial distribution system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
