Topics of interest for the issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Development trends in future distribution systems;
- 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.
