The deployment of energy storage systems (ESSs) is a significant avenue for maximising the energy efficiency of a distribution network, and overall network performance can be enhanced by their optimal placement, sizing, and operation.
With its bi-directional and flexible power characteristics, energy storage can effectively solve the security and stability issues brought by the integration of distributed power generation into the distribution network, many researches have been conducted on the urban distribution networks.
Energy storage systems For distribution networks, an ESS converts electrical energy from a power network, via an external interface, into a form that can be stored and converted back to electrical energy when needed , , .
The findings presented in this study underscore the critical synergies between Distributed Resources (DR), specifically Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), in enhancing the sustainability, reliability, and flexibility of modern power systems.

Under the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, the adoption of clean energy for power generation has become an essential choice for the power industry. The distribution system plays an essential role in clean energy consumption and user-side emission reduction, however, it also faces new challenges.
