“…As a network with an optimum architecture, VPP offers users with high reliability and quality power supply at low prices and with minimum electrical losses. In [277], a graph theory (GT) and structural topological-based approach was evaluated for determining an optimal topology for VPP. The authors in [292] carried out an extensive review on structure and operation of VPP with respect to DER integration and operation, as well as VPP involvement in the energy market.…”

To enhance the reliability and resilience of power systems and achieve reliable delivery of power to end users, smart distribution networks (SDNs) play a vital role. The conventional distribution network is transforming into an active one by incorporating a higher degree of automation. Replacing the traditional absence of manual actions, energy delivery is becoming increasingly dependent on intelligent active system management. As an emerging grid modernization concept, the smart grid addresses a wide range of economic and environmental concerns, especially by integrating a wide range of active technologies at distribution level. At the same time, these active technologies are causing a slew of technological problems in terms of power quality and stability. The development of such strategies and approaches that can improve SDN infrastructure in terms of planning, operation, and control has always been essential. As a result, a substantial number of studies have been conducted in these areas over the last 10–15 years. The current literature lacks a combined systematic analysis of the planning, operation, and control of SDN technologies. This paper conducts a systematic survey of the state-of-the-art advancements in SDN planning, operation, and control over the last 10 years. The reviewed literature is structured so that each SDN technology is discussed sequentially from the viewpoints of planning, operation, and then control. A comprehensive analysis of practical SND concepts across the globe is also presented in later sections. The key constraints and future research opportunities in the existing literature are discussed in the final part. This review specifically assists readers in comprehending current trends in SDN planning, operation, and control, as well as identifying the need for further research to contribute to the field.

“…From the perspective of system management, VPPs must consider the real-time impact of distributed energy aggregation on local networks, and represent the cost and operational characteristics of the portfolio [16]. Sosnina et al [17] combining distributed generation with centralised grid, the relationship between power quality and power ratio of the grid and distributed generation in the VPP is studied, and an algorithm to determine the optimal topology of the distribution network in the VPP is proposed. Sosnina et al [18] considering the uncertainty of renewable energy generation in VPPs, proposed and studied the optimisation criteria of VPPs.…”

“…Sosnina et al [19] proposes a VPP network optimisation algorithm for aggregating independent power systems, which optimises the VPP network by structural topology analysis and working mode stability analysis. Although the above research [17][18][19] on the topology of the VPP has achieved good results, the topology involved in the literature is static topology and cannot analyse the dynamic distributed generation. For a VPP composed of an EV cluster, analysing the charging time flow characteristics is an important step in realising the intelligent management and control of a power system.…”
