This method is based on the analysis of the relations among power network construction investment,operation cost and substation location and sets the objective functions as minimizing the investment on the inlet-outlet lines of a substati.

This paper presented a novel method for substation location planning of the weighted Voronoi diagram (WVD) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, which could optimize the location and power supply area of substations while the number and capacity of the substations were predefined.
