Abstract: This paper proposed the concept of Industry Active Distribution Network (IADN), analyzed technical issues and illustrated the realization of IADN according to industrial customer requirement. IADN would bring a great technology revolution to present Industry Distribution Network (IDN). The innovation by IADN was elaborated from three aspects: system architecture upgrade, system utilization enhancement and system reliability improvement. Particularly, architecture planning methodology, energy harvesting technique, and real-time communication technology in IADN were emphasized. The related implementations were discussed in this paper based on the IADN laboratory development.

Keywords: Industry distribution network; active distribution network
