Risk assessment of cascading outages : methodologies and challenges
This research is the product of a worldwide IEEE Task Force collaboration. It provides an assessment of the state-of-the-art in ‘the risk of cascading outages’, an area of power system operation attracting growing attention worldwide, and provides unique insight into the key challenges. It has led to an EPSRC/Power Networks Research Academy [EP/F037686/1, £1.1M, 2008-2015] project ‘The effect of climate change on design and operation of meshed power networks’ [£90k, 2011-2015, Jenny.Cooper@nationalgrid.com, Colin.Bayfield@scottishpower.com], and an EPSRC CASE Award with National Grid [11440418 ‘Smart electricity system operation’, £94k, 2012-2016, Alex.Carter@nationalgrid.com].
