The traditional network structure cannot be suitable for the connection of large-scale distributed energy resources, thus the high penetration of distributed energy resource (DER) will have destructive effects on the security and reliability of the traditional distribution network. The paper proposes a new distribution network structure to increase the maximum allowable penetration of DER. Firstly, the model and method of the new distribution network structure are presented. Secondly, the theory basis of increasing the DER penetration by the new network structure is proved. Finally, the proposed model and method are applied to the typical test case. And the simulation results show that compared with the traditional structure, the new distribution network structure can not only increase the maximum penetration of distributed energy resource greatly, but also realize the high energy efficiency, reliability and sustainability. Therefore, the issue of future distribution network security with high penetration of distributed energy resource can be well solved by the new distribution network structure proposed in the paper.
