Power Grid Infrastructural Resilience against Extreme Events

Extreme weather events are one of the main causes large-scale power outages in distribution systems. The changing climate has led to an increase frequency and severity these events, which, if not mitigated, expected lead more instances widespread severe societal economic damages that ensue. Protecting grid against such which high impact yet low frequency, requires a paradigm shift design practices. In recent years, many researchers have focused on resilience extreme by proposing various hardening and/or redundancy solutions. goal this paper is provide survey literature related infrastructural events. Currently, no standard definitions or metrics exist for resilience, adopt models quantifying assessing it. Hence, review most commonly used provided first, with discussion their advantages disadvantages. Next, presents extensive critical solution methodologies proposed improving grid. shortcomings current methods gaps research identified, followed future directions research.
