Nowadays, more and more wind turbine generators ( WTGs ) are being integrated into power systems. In this paper, an optimal WTG allocation model with the objective of minimizing the annual cost is proposed. The model can take into account the time‐sequential correlation between the wind speed and load demand, as well as four kinds of active management measures, i.e. regulating the on‐load tap changer of the transformer, curtailing the output power of WTG , regulating the power factor of WTG , and managing the demand side. The time‐sequential correlation is handled by the joint probability distribution method. A hybrid solving strategy combining the fuzzy adaptive particle swarm optimization algorithm and primal‐dual interior point method is developed to get the optimal solutions. Case studies carried out on the IEEE 33‐bus active distribution network verify the feasibility of the developed model and the high efficiency of the proposed solving strategy. © 2017 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
