No study in the literature considers both randomness and fuzziness simultaneously, which actually coexist as the penetration of renewable energy in power system increases. In order to handle these two kinds of uncertain features simultaneously, a novel random fuzzy power flow (RFPF) calculation method for a distribution network based on random fuzzy theory is presented here. Firstly, the random fuzzy models of wind and photovoltaic (PV) generation, and loads are set up for the first time according to their features of randomness and fuzziness. Then, a two‐fold random fuzzy simulation is conducted to obtain the results of the RFPF calculations; the random simulation stage is based on the 2 m + 1 scheme of the point estimate method. Finally, the proposed method is applied to two test systems. The results show that the proposed method is feasible and effective in identifying important areas in the power system affected by distribution generation and loads with these two uncertainties.
