Sommario/riassunto

This book provides comprehensive coverage of the resilience and reliability of power grids. It begins with the definition and theory of power grid resilience and then extends to cover the full spectrum of power grid resilience, ranging from planning to operation including system hardening, mitigation, and restoration. Practical case studies on both the bulk power system and distribution networks are included to illustrate how adaptive measures can be taken to improve the grid



resilience against large-scale events. Power Grid Resilience: Theory and Applications is a state-of-the-art guide that is essential reading for practicing engineers, researchers, and scientists working in the power and energy industry. The book is also useful as a reference for undergraduate and graduate students studying power systems. First comprehensive book on power grid resilience; Provides coverage on resilience from theory to applications; Written by leading experts on grid resilience and reliability.

Sommario/riassunto

"The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and water management agencies representing the seven Colorado River Basin States initiated the Colorado River Basin Study in January 2010 to evaluate the resiliency of the Colorado River system over the next 50 years and compare different options for ensuring successful management of the river's resources. RAND was asked to join this Basin Study Team in January 2012 to help develop an analytic approach to identify key vulnerabilities in managing the Colorado River basin over the coming decades and to evaluate different options that could reduce this vulnerability. Using a quantitative approach for planning under uncertainty called Robust Decision Making (RDM), the RAND team assisted the Basin Study by: identifying future vulnerable conditions that could lead to imbalances that could cause the basin to be unable to meet its water delivery objectives; developing a computer-based tool to define 'portfolios' of management options reflecting different strategies for reducing basin imbalances; evaluating these portfolios across thousands of future scenarios to determine how much they could improve basin outcomes; and analyzing the results from the system simulations to identify key tradeoffs among the portfolios. This report describes RAND's contribution to the Basin Study, focusing on the methodologies used to identify vulnerabilities for Upper Basin and Lower Basin water supply reliability and compare portfolios of options. The report provides a useful resource for other planners wishing to replicate or expand on the methodologies used for other studies"--Back cover.
