title = "Optimal allocation of PV systems in distribution networks using PSO",
abstract = "This manuscript presents a case study to determine the optimal location and size of photovoltaic systems in an electric distribution networks using particle swarm optimization (PSO) such that network voltage profile is improved and losses are minimized. The distribution network of Masirah Island, Oman, is considered as a case study system. The test system is modeled and simulated using MATLAB load flow toolbox.",
