With the continuous emergence of new energy storage technology, the application of new energy development technology and new materials, and the rapid development of multi grid integration, the traditional power system operation chain, which is completed at the same time of generation, transmission, transformation, distribution and use, will be bypassed or short circuited in part. According to the current construction practice of intelligent distribution Internet of things, the relationship between various elements of power system in the future and the position of energy allocation, the possible development direction and existing mode of distribution network in the future are as follows: the traditional distribution network is gradually micro in the coverage of power load, based on a variety of forms of three-tier architecture including omnidirectional sensing layer, energy transmission layer and composite application layer. The type of distributed micro grid and intelligent distribution network integrate and cross, and the AC / DC distribution network cross hybrid distribution Internet of things will become an important part of the new hybrid network as the dominant carrier of energy transformation, providing a platform for energy providers, transmission regulators, users, information service providers and other parties, and providing support for the sustainable development of the whole society.
