“…In contrast to this concept, GICs were detected in several power systems in mid-low latitude countries, for example, South Africa [87], Spain [88] and New Zealand [54]. However, the 2003 GMD event has received attention and especially motivated GIC analysis in mid-low latitude countries, and as a result, many studies have been conducted, for example, on Argentina [89], Czech Republic [90], New Zealand [91][92][93][94] , Brazil [95][96][97], South Africa [98,99], China [100][101][102], Japan [103,104] , Kenya [105], Australia [106][107][108] , continental analysis of Europe [56], Spain [88,109], Switzerland [110], Greece [111], Namibia [112], Uruguay [113], Austria [114], Ethiopia [115,116], South Korea [117], Italy [118], and Mexico [119]. In high-latitude countries, the induced geoelectric field in the east-west direction is remarkable.…”
