To find optimum sizes and locations of BSI units, two indices, namely, minimum power injection (MPI), and minimum active power loss index (MAPLI) are used. BSI units can supply active and reactive power, are used to improve system voltage profile and reduce system losses. To investigate the dynamic effects, instead of conventionally used fixed peak load, a 24-hour time varying load model is used. To supply active and reactive power, BSI units are attached to all buses, but at one bus each time, with sizes starting from 0 and are further increased with a rate of 0.5 KVA, meanwhile the two indices are calculated for every bus for each hour. Method is tested on IEEE-33 bus test distribution network and results are presented. The results show that utilization of BSI can improve the voltage profile and can reduce the system losses up to 78 in distribution networks. The study also suggests that best time for utilizing of stored energy is during the peak load hours. © 2016 IEEE. date: 2017 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85011971560&doi=10.1109%2fICIAS.2016.7824086&partnerID=40&md5=b0df704346fd631e686177c55d7e858c id_number: 10.1109/ICIAS.2016.7824086 full_text_status: none publication: International Conference on Intelligent and Advanced Systems, ICIAS 2016 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781509008452 citation: Jamali, A.A. and Nor, N.M. and Ibrahim, T. and Romlie, M.F.
