This editorial document provides the main motivations and a brief description of each paper published in the “Rethinking the Distribution Power Network Planning and Operation for a Sustainable Smart Grid and Smooth Interaction with Electrified Transportation” Special Issue. This Special Issue aims to present several innovative solutions on planning and operation of distribution power networks under smart grid paradigm where prosumers, electric vehicles, and other typical loads are usually connected. Some of those solutions and computational applications were covered in this Special Issue, namely probabilistic power flow, voltage and power factor control, agent-based simulation, digital twin, resilient energy scheduling, and uncertainty modeling are among the contributions. The published works are very timely and are of great interest, which will certainly drive the impact of future researchers in the near term concerning the field of this Special Issue.

As the urbanization of cities is rapidly developing in China, metropolitan regions establish the clustered power network planning scheme on the background of the clustered city planning of the adjacent areas. Base on the functional orientation and difference of clusters, as well as the theory of hierarchical clustered city planning, the article puts forward the power network planning thoughts and methods. As cluster becomes a planning unit, the load density method is applied in the differential load forecast and the location of substations as well as the path of transmission lines is selected with the thoughts of separation according to different layers and areas. And then, the results will be compared and verified with the planning scheme of the other clustered cities which have the similar function orientation and planning strategy. Finally, the planning methods will be standardized. The application in the power network of Cluster of Livable Education City in Zhengzhou has proved that the methods and steps of the power planning method proposed is able to meet the demand of the network development under the situation of the rapid growth of load.

Smart Grid framework to achieve clean energy friendly access, to achieve energy conservation and reduction of environmental pollution, is to build the smart grid hallmark. Photovoltaic power plants grid, although to bring some impact on the grid, but also a certain role in promoting on the line loss rate decreased. This ignores the impact of other factors, only from the perspective satisfy voltage constraints, analyzing PV power plant different grid location and grid capacity for line loss rate.
