Abstract

In this document, a new methodology for the optimal allocation of capacitor electric vehicle (EV) charging points on smart grid systems is introduced. To realize a better balance between exploring and exploiting Wing suit Flying Search (WFS), the Chaos Game Optimization (CGO) algorithm is used on WFS performance. Thus, it is named the WFS-CGO approach. Here, along with reactive compensation, allocation of parking and capacitors is presented for congestion management. The proposed approach is used to limit the amount of parking space. The performance of the proposed system is tested on a IEEE 34 bus distribution network. The outcome obtained by the QGDA system is compared to existing procedures like PSO, ALO, ACSO, WFSA, and WFS2ACSO techniques. Under cases 1, 2, and 3, after EV loss, the proposed technique achieves 216.3397, 232.9558, and 265.0174. Additionally, the proposed outcomes portray that an uneven EV charging scenario may cause an important voltage imbalance that goes beyond their allowable limit of 2%.
