Planning and Operation of Integrated Renewable Energy Distribution System

This special issue belongs to the section “A1: Smart Grids and Microgrids“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The increasing penetration of intermittent and stochastic renewable energy brings great challenges for distribution networks. This Special Issue aims to present the most recent advances related to the current research and future development in integrated renewable energy distribution system: planning and operation.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Form and development trend of future distribution system;
  • Integrated renewable energy distribution system planning;
  • Integrated renewable energy distribution system operation;
  • Reliability and resilience assessment;
  • Optimization;
  • Digital twins;
  • EV orderly charging and V2G;
  • Load-demand response;
  • Renewable energy consumption;
  • DC distribution system technology;
  • Power electronics applications
