In recent years, significant research efforts have been devoted to the optimal design of
modern power distribution systems. The aim of power distribution planning (PDP) is to …

Distributed generators (DGs) are a reliable solution to supply economic and reliable
electricity to customers. It is the last stage in delivery of electric power which can be defined …

The use of electrical energy storage system resources to improve the reliability and power
storage in distribution networks is one of the solutions that has received much attention from …

A multistage active distribution network (ADN) planning model that is integrated with the
application of energy storage system (ESS) is presented in this paper. Both the long-term …

Planning of the electric distribution networks is complex and about upgrading the system to
satisfy the demand and constraints with the best economic plan. The planning alternatives …

This paper addresses the multistage expansion planning problem of a distribution system
where investments in the distribution network and in distributed generation are jointly …

This paper describes the incorporation of uncertainty and reliability in the dynamic
expansion planning of distribution network assets and distributed generation. Several …

Analytical methods for evaluating the reliability of simple and radial distribution networks
have been well established. Since these analytical methods cannot consider post-fault load …

To achieve high reliability, the urban distribution networks are mesh-constructed and radial-
operated, in which the outage load can be restored to adjacent feeders via tie-lines after …

Renewable energy resources and transport electrification have become essential
components of modern and future distribution planning. Despite the impetus of economic …
