Several policies have been developed to encourage the development of renewable energy sources in order to hasten the transition to a more sustainable energy system in response to the urgent environmental concerns the world faces today. Integrating renewable distributed generation (RE-DG) into the distribution network can achieve a more resilient and sustainable energy system. The system's efficiency can be increased by integrating RE-DG and capacitor into the distribution network since it can lower energy losses, enhance the voltage profile and provide economic benefit. This paper presents an optimal allocation and sizing of RE-DG and capacitor by using Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm. The proposed method has been implemented in selected public hospital distribution systems. The results show that installing RE-DG and capacitor at optimal location and capacity is important to achieve maximum power loss reduction and economic benefit in the distribution system.
