The proper sizing and placement of DGs, specifically photovoltaics (PVs) and wind turbines (WTs), remain crucial due to the uncertain characteristics of renewable energy. To overcome these challenges, this study explores an enhanced version of a meta-heuristic technique called the prairie dog optimizer (PDO). The modified prairie dogs optimizer (mPDO) incorporates a novel exploration phase inspired by the slime mold algorithm (SMA) food approach. The mPDO algorithm is proposed to analyze the substantial effects of different dynamic load characteristics on the performance of the distribution networks and the designing of the PV-based and WT-based DGs. The optimization problem incorporates various operational constraints to mitigate energy loss in the distribution networks. Further, the study addresses uncertainties related to the random characteristics of PV and WT power outputs by employing appropriate probability distributions. The mPDO algorithm is evaluated using cec2020 benchmark suit test functions and rigorous statistical analysis to mathematically measure its success rate and efficacy while considering different type of optimization problems. The developed mPDO algorithm is applied to incorporate both PV and WT units, individually and simultaneously, into the IEEE 69-bus distribution network. This is achieved considering residential, commercial, industrial, and mixed time-varying voltage-dependent load demands. The efficacy of the modified algorithm is demonstrated using the standard benchmark functions, and a comparative analysis is conducted with the original PDO and other well-known algorithms, utilizing various statistical metrics. The numerical findings emphasize the significant influence of load type and time-varying generation in DG planning. Moreover, the mPDO algorithm beats the alternatives and improves distributed generators' technical advantages across all examined scenarios.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-024-64667-4","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,19]],"date-time":"2024-06-19T16:04:49Z","timestamp":1718813089000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Boosting prairie dog optimizer for optimal planning of multiple wind turbine and photovoltaic distributed generators in distribution networks considering different dynamic load models"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Mohamed A.","family":"Elseify","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fatma A.","family":"Hashim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdelazim G.","family":"Hussien","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hussein","family":"Abdel-Mawgoud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Salah","family":"Kamel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"64667_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2081","DOI":"10.3390\/math10122081","volume":"10","author":"MA Elseify","year":"2022","unstructured":"Elseify, M.
