Abstract: Traditional distribution network planning evaluation commonly relies on a unified indicator system, which is insufficient to reflect the heterogeneous characteristics of emerging distribution networks across different regions and development stages. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a data-driven method for constructing planning evaluation indicators for emerging distribution networks. First, based on an existing comprehensive indicator system, key factors of county-level distribution networks are identified to classify typical planning scenarios, and a preliminary scenario-oriented indicator system is established with expert knowledge. Second, data-driven techniques are employed for indicator selection. The maximum relevance and minimum redundancy (mRMR) method and the Random Forest (RF) algorithm are introduced to evaluate indicator relevance and importance, respectively, and a game-theoretic combination method with coefficient-of-variation (CV) correction is used for comprehensive screening. Finally, a county-level case study is conducted to validate the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method can adjust the planning evaluation indicator system according to changes in distribution network characteristics under different scenarios and performs well in the studied cases. This method provides a practical framework for constructing adaptive indicator systems for distribution network planning evaluation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
