Distributed Generation Expansion Planning (DGEP) has been considered in many of studies in the last decade. There have been many studies on DGEP at the viewpoint of the network owner or the Distribution System Operator (DSO). In many cases, DSO invests to construct the Distributed Generations (DGs) to improve the network technical indices, in which the study seems useful. But, if the private investor (PI) invests for construction, the network owner cannot put all his own planning indices in PI’s planning and push the investor to improve the network. The solution in many studies is to make compromise between the goals of DSO and PI. But the key point in solving the problem is that the investment and construction of the DG is done by a private investor and such an investment should be attractive to him. Without considering PI goals and financial gain, there will be no practical optimization as he is not willing to compromise where his maximum profit is reduced. Therefore, if DSO intends to encourage the investor to invest in plans that improve network technical indices, the incentives should be made to attract PI. In this thesis, a two-level optimization model is proposed to combine planning from the viewpoint of DSO and PI. The purpose of granting incentives to PI is to maintain the network indices in suitable values, while maintaining the optimality of PI financial indices. In order to perform proper modeling, the uncertainties of renewable resources are also modeled by using the point estimate method.
