In this paper, Differential Evolutionary (DE) algorithm has been proposed to determine optimal location, size, and number of capacitor banks in the radial distribution networks. Load of networks consist of different patterns, then in load modelling process three models have been introduced; constant and varying as well as effective loads. For capacitor installation, distribution networks are best option and as majority of distribution networks have radial topology; then DE algorithm has been tested on IEEE 10-bus radial distribution network and practical 73-bus radial distribution network of Ahvaz city in south of Iran. In this study, has been focused on cost and active power loss reduction as well as increment of minimum voltage using capacitor installation.

W artykule opisano wykorzystanie algorytmu DE (different evolutionary) do określania optymalnej lokalizacji, wielkości i liczby kondensatorów w sieci energetycznej. Jako obciążenie przyjęto trzy różne modele. Algorytm był testowany na IEEE 10-szynowej sieci promieniowej i 73 szynowej sieci w mieście Ahvaz w Iranie.
