  ABSTRACT: This study focused on optimizing distribution networks through the strategic integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems and D-STATCOM compensators. Using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, three scenarios were evaluated to minimize active losses and stabilize the voltage profile. The individual results showed that while PV alone effectively reduces losses (47.79%) and D-STATCOM alone improves reactive regulation (24.08%), neither solution offers total performance. The joint optimization of both pieces of equipment proved to be the most effective, achieving a 69.18% reduction in losses and ensuring a voltage profile that strictly complies with wave quality standards across all nodes, including the most remote ones.
