The approach to planning, design and operation of distribution networks have significantly changed due to the proliferation of distributed energy resources (DERs) together with load growth, energy storage technology advancements and increased consumer expectations. Planning of active distribution systems (ADS) has been a very hot topic in the 21st Century. A large number of studies have been done on ADS planning. This paper reviews the state of the art of current ADS planning. Firstly, the influences of DERs on the ADS planning are addressed. Secondly, the characteristics and objectives of ADS planning are summarized. Then, up to date planning model and some related research are highlighted in different areas such as forecasting load and distributed generation, mathematical model of ADS planning and solution algorithms. Finally, the paper explores some directions of future research on ADS planning including planning collaboratively with all elements combined in ADS, taking into account of joint planning in secondary system, coordinating goals among different layers, integrating detailed operation simulations and regular performance based reviews into planning, and developing advanced planning tools.

In practical power systems, in order to study the results of optimal power flow (OPF) for a sub‐transmission network (STN), the downstream primary distribution network is usually modeled as constant load. However, in practical distribution grids, the operators are constantly transferring load from one primary distribution feeder to another one because of, eg, congestion problems or maintenance plans. Considering distribution switching actions can improve the performance of sub‐transmission OPF tool that typically aims at reducing the operation cost of STN. This paper presents a new sub‐transmission Alternating Current (AC) OPF (ST‐AC‐OPF) considering load transferring (LT) between primary distribution feeders implemented through distribution maneuvers. The proposed OPF tool is tested on an illustrative practical example as well as on a real‐world Tehran STN. The numerical results show that the proposed model can obtain a more optimal operating point than conventional ST‐AC‐OPF in terms of the operation cost and load shedding.
