Distribution planning: State of the art and extensions to substation sizing

Models and Procedures for Electric Energy Distribution Planning. A Review

“…Then, the problem can be seen as a mixed integer linear programming problem [Adams et al 1984, Adams, Laughton, 1974, Afuso et al 1982, Aoki et al 1990, El-Kadi 1984, Fawzi et al 1983, Gönen, Foote 1981, Gönen, Foote 1982, Gönen 1986, Hindi, Brameller 1977, Masud 1974, Masud 1978, Nara et al 1991, Ramírez-Rosado., Gönen 1991, Sun et al 1982, Thompson, Wall 1981, Wall et al 1979, and solved using the available procedures based on the simplex method. The references [Adams et al 1984, Adams, Laughton, 1973, Afuso et al 1982] use a dynamic programming model and [Crawford, Holt Jr 1975, Holt Jr, Crawford 1976] use graph theory related models, and solve the problem combining shortest path algorithms and transportation algorithms.…”

“…Several efforts have been made to develop more sophisticated methods to solve the multi-period distribution system planning known as dynamic models [Adams et al 1984, Adams, Laughton, 1973, Adams, Laughton, 1974, Afuso et al 1982, El-Kadi 1984, Gönen, Foote 1982, Gönen 1986, Masud 1978, Sun et al 1982.…”

“…The subproblem of optimal dimensioning and/or location of electric distribution substations [Adams et al 1984, Adams, Laughton, 1973, Adams, Laughton, 1974, Afuso et al 1982, Bouchard et al 1994, Crawford, Holt Jr 1975, Holt Jr, Crawford 1976, Hongwei et al 1993, Masud 1974, Masud 1978. The subproblem of dimensioning and/or location of feeders [Adams, Laughton, 1974, Mikic 1986, Wall et al 1979.…”
