Abstract: To address the challenges of power loss and voltage instability in power grids, a novel solution is proposed. This solution uses a real objectives particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique to find the best size and location for distributed generators (DGs). This ensures that the grid operates efficiently and within its limits. The method's validity is proven by its successful application in the real distribution system part from Hebron city grid, showcasing improved performance.
