Power distribution networks are in a transformation active distribution networks with distributed energy resources. However, the widely adopted distribution test networks were established many years ago, which are untimely and cannot reflect the characteristics of high penetration renewable energy. Therefore, in this study, a distribution network with high penetration renewable energy is established based on the real data of a renewable‐energy‐rich radial rural distribution network in China. The proposed radial distribution network includes three types of loads and two types of renewable energy distributed generations. The evaluation indexes are designed to assess the proposed system and compare with the existing distribution networks. In addition, the topical high/low voltage problem of distribution network caused by high penetration of renewables is discussed. Furthermore, based on the measured time series characteristics of load and renewable resources, the effectiveness of the proposed system is validated by power flow analysis and dynamic characteristic criterion.
