Abstract: This paper presents an interactive fuzzy satisfying method, which is based on Hybrid Modified Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm, and should solve the problem of the Multi-objective optimal placement and sizing of DG (distributed generation) units in the distribution network. Minimizing total electrical energy losses, total electrical energy cost and total pollutant emissions produced are the objective functions in this problem.
