Abstract Distributed generations (DGs) are widely used to meet electric energy demand in distribution networks. DGs are advantageous compared to the centralized generating units in many ways including reducing power loss, improving voltage profile, enhancing network stability, decreasing pollution, releasing transmission line capacity, and reducing congestion of distribution lines. The size and site of DGs logically influence power loss in distribution networks. The optimal place and capacity of DGs are determined aiming at minimizing power loss in distribution networks. In this article, firefly algorithm (FA) is used for optimum placement of various DGs in distribution networks. Optimum power factor of DGs along with active and reactive powers are obtained in this work. Various DGs of generating/consuming types are considered in the suggested method. Performance analysis of the proposed method has been done on standard IEEE 33 bus system in MATLAB.
