The placement and capacity of these devices have direct effects on the system's performance. This paper presents a model for the simultaneous allocation of capacitor banks and distributed generation, which takes into account the stochastic nature of distributed generation. To solve the model presented, we propose an efficient hybrid method based on Tabu search and genetic algorithms. The hybrid method is applied to a well-known system in literature.975-984engCapacitor bank (CB)distributed generation (DG)uncertaintyTabu search (TB)Chu-Beasley genetic algorithm (CBGA)Artigo10.1109/TSTE.2015.2512819WOS:000379696600008Acesso abertoWOS000379696600008.pdf
