The growing integration of high shares of renewable energy and power electronics has led to the "dual-high" characteristics of modern power systems, while the increasing scale of distributed energy resources presents both opportunities and challenges for grid operation. Leveraging the active support capabilities of diverse distributed generation, load, and storage resources has become crucial for enhancing grid flexibility and stability. However, the variability, uncertainty, and multi‑temporal‑spatial coupling of these resources pose significant challenges to coordinated control and real‑time decision‑making. Traditional methods relying on deterministic forecasting and explicit physical models often struggle with issues of conservatism, accuracy, and adaptability in such complex environments. In recent years, data‑driven and learning‑based approaches have shown great potential to address these limitations and enable more intelligent, adaptive, and efficient coordination of multi‑type resources. This special session aims to explore advanced optimization, control, and learning‑based technologies that empower active grid support from distributed resources, with a focus on improving dynamic performance, resilience, and operational efficiency of future power systems.
