Abstract: In this paper, authors proposed a new methodology based on bio-inspired Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA), which can significantly be envisaged with simultaneous allocation of Distributed Generation (DG) and Distribution STATic COMpensator (DSTATCOM) in the radial distribution systems (RDS). In the proposed method, optimal locations of the DG and DSTATCOM are determined by using Voltage Stability Index (VSI) and Loss Sensitivity Factor (LSF) respectively. The optimal size of DG and DSTATCOM are found by using a newly developed nature-inspired CSA in the RDS. Further, in the proposed method load flow calculations are carried out by using a fast and efficient Backward/Forward Sweep (BFS) algorithm. The objective function of the proposed method is derived in such a way that to minimize the system total power losses and enhancing the bus voltages. The effectiveness of the proposed method is tested by considering a well-known IEEE 33-bus and large 136-bus RDS. The attained results of the proposed method and comparison of different cases for allocation of DG and DSTATCOM are presented in result section. From the presented results, it can be clearly understood that the proposed method is able to significantly reduce the power losses and enhance the voltage profile of the RDS.
