Distributed trailing edge wing flap systems are described. An example wing flap system for an aircraft includes a flap, an actuator, a first hydraulic module, and a second hydraulic module. The flap is movable between a deployed position and a retracted position relative to a fixed trailing edge of a wing of the aircraft. The actuator is to move the flap relative to the fixed trailing edge. The first hydraulic module is located at the actuator. The second hydraulic module is located remotely from the first hydraulic module and includes a local power unit. The actuator is hydraulically drivable via first pressurized hydraulic fluid to be supplied from a hydraulic system of the aircraft to the actuator via the second hydraulic module and further via the first hydraulic module. The actuator is also hydraulically drivable via second pressurized hydraulic fluid to be supplied from the local power unit to the actuator via the second hydraulic module and further via the first hydraulic module.
