Abstract :
Smart Grids are the result of the activation of consumers in the power system and their role in the planning and operation of the power system. The communication, control and measurement infrastructure as a smart communication bridge establishes two-way communication between consumers and the power network and provides the basis for the effective implementation of the load response program as well as direct load control. The purpose of solving the problem of economic load distribution in the power system is to plan the output of production units in such a way as to provide the required load demand with the lowest possible cost. In addition, it satisfies the constraints of equality or inequality of all units. In this research, PSO optimization method is taken into consideration by considering voltage deviation, voltage loss and system load capacity as part of the objective function.
