A new methodology is introduced for optimization of the radial distribution network. Voltage profile improvement and power loss minimization are the main objectives discussed in this article. The optimization problem is solved using the Spotted Hyena Optimizer algorithm to determine the optimal size of Distribution Generation (DG) units. The Spotted Hyena Optimizer (SHO) algorithm is a meta-heuristic algorithm based on the hunting and social behaviours of spotted hyenas. Load flow analysis is formulated by using the DLF matrix, which consists of the BIBC and BCBV matrices. Network reconfiguration is performed on the distribution network to reduce power losses and improve voltage profile with DG allocation, which leads to better results. This method is tested on IEEE balanced 33-bus systems. These cases were tested in MATLAB environment, and the results are presented.
