Ltd.10.26689/jera.v10i5.15276ArticleThe Development and Current Situation of Flexible DC Distribution Technologyhttps://artdesignp.com/journal/JERA/10/5/10.26689/jera.v10i5.15276HeShengquan20261052026-06-29Against the strategic background of the “dual carbon” goals, flexible DC distribution technology has become a core pillar of the new power system with its high-efficiency, flexible and controllable technical advantages. It can not only coordinate the relationship between distributed generation and the power grid, but also adapt to high-proportion new energy access and promote the low-carbon transformation of the power grid. This paper analyzes the advantages and core technologies of flexible DC distribution technology, expounds its development status, and prospects its development path from three aspects: R&D of power electronic equipment, optimization of flexible DC distribution protection schemes, and coordinated development, aiming to provide a reference for the stable development of the new power system.
