<![CDATA[Accommodation of distributed generation (DG) units in the distribution power network (DPN) reduces the power losses (PL), improves the voltage profile (VP), and enhances the stability. The size and site for distribution generations have to be optimized to avail favorable results. Otherwise, the DPN may experience greater power losses, higher voltage deviation, and voltage instability issues. This article implements an optimization technique using a hunter-prey optimizer (HPO) algorithm to optimize single and multiple (two) DG units in the radial DPN to minimize total real power losses (RPL) and total voltage deviation (TVD). The effectiveness of the HPO algorithm is assessed on the IEEE benchmark 69-bus radial DPN and a real-world Cairo-59 bus RDS. The simulation outcome after the optimized inclusion of DGs shown significant RPL reduction and considerable voltage enhancement. Furthermore, the optimized results of HPO algorithm were compared to the different algorithms and the comparison proved that the HPO can provide a more promising and authentic outcome than other algorithms.]]>
