This paper proposes a novel method to co-optimize distribution system operation and repair crew routing for outage restoration after extreme weather events. A two-stage stochastic mixed integer linear program is developed. The first stage…
When a major outage occurs on a distribution system due to extreme events, microgrids, distributed generators, and other local resources can be used to restore critical loads and enhance resiliency. This paper proposes a decision-making…
Optimal decision-making is key to efficient allocation and scheduling of repair resources (e.g., crews) to service affected nodes of large power grid networks. Traditional manual restoration methods are inadequate for modern smart grids…
Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes and large wind or ice storms, typically require the repair of a large number of components in electricity distribution networks. Since power cannot be restored before these repairs have…
Electricity distribution networks (DNs) in many regions are increasingly subjected to disruptions caused by tropical storms. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) can act as temporary supply sources to sustain "microgrids" resulting from…
Accurate probabilistic modeling of the power system restoration process is essential for resilience planning, operational decision-making, and realistic simulation of resilience events. In this work, we develop data-driven probabilistic…
The distribution system restoration (DSR) problem has received considerable attention over the last decade or more. Solutions to the DSR problem identify the best set or sequence of actions to perform on a distribution circuit to restore…
In the modern world, we are permanently using, leveraging, interacting with, and relying upon systems of ever higher sophistication, ranging from our cars, recommender systems in e-commerce, and networks when we go online, to integrated…
This study introduces a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, effectively co-optimizing patrolling, damage assessment, fault isolation, repair, and load re-energization processes. The model is designed to solve a vital operational…
The ever-increasing penetration of Distributed Generators (DGs) in distribution networks suggests to enable their potentials in better fulfilling the restoration objective. The objective of the restoration problem is to resupply the maximum…
Power system restoration is an essential activity for grid resilience, where grid operators restart generators, re-establish transmission paths, and restore loads after a blackout event. With a goal of restoring electric service in the…
Accurately modeling power distribution grids is crucial for designing effective monitoring and decision making algorithms. This paper addresses the partial observability issue of data-driven distribution modeling in order to improve the…
The power distribution system is evolving in the form of an intelligent grid. The proliferation of distributed energy resources (DERs) makes the previously passive system active and more complicated. With the adoption of de-carbonization…
The problem of load balancing in a distribution network under unknown time- varying demand and supply is studied. A set of distributed controllers which regulate the amount of flow through the edges is designed to guarantee convergence of…
Improving the reliability of power distribution systems is critically important for both utilities and customers. This calls for an efficient service restoration module within a distribution management system to support the implementation…
In this paper we consider two points of views to the problem of coherent integration of distributed data. First we give a pure model-theoretic analysis of the possible ways to `repair' a database. We do so by characterizing the…
A major outage in the electricity distribution system may affect the operation of water and natural gas supply systems, leading to an interruption of multiple services to critical customers. Therefore, enhancing resilience of critical…
Electrical infrastructures provide services at the basis of a number of application sectors, several of which are critical from the perspective of human life, environment or financials. Following the increasing trend in electricity…
To improve the resilience of electric distribution systems, this paper proposes a stochastic multi-period mixed-integer linear programming model that determines where to underground distribution lines and how to coordinate mobile generators…
In this paper an efficient model based diagnostic process is described for systems whose components possess a causal relation between their inputs and their outputs. In this diagnostic process, firstly, a set of focuses on likely broken…
