Storm modeling for prediction of power distribution system outages

A graph trace based reliability analysis of electric power systems with time-varying loads and dependent failures

“…In a previous study a series of weather conditions are modeled, including lightning, high wind, heat wave, and icy conditions [4]. The Operating Condition parameter in Eq.…”

“…Adverse weather conditions affect system reliability [4][5][6][7]. Existing feeder outages place remaining feeders under stress, increasing the probability of additional failures.…”

“…Modeling the underlying distribution system, including each customer's service point, can result in a model containing millions of objects. Furthermore, for accurate reliability analysis the effects of equipment loading, weather conditions and many types of failure factors need to be considered, including dependent failures [1][2][3][4][5][6][7].…”

Automation Effects on Reliability and Operation Costs in Storm Restoration

“…In previous work, an analytical storm outage model was proposed to predict the number of outages during the storm [12]. This helps utilities to plan crews in advance.…”

AdaBoost$^{+}$: An Ensemble Learning Approach for Estimating Weather-Related Outages in Distribution Systems

“…An exponential model as a function of time for forecasting cumulative outages during different extreme weather events has been proposed in [3]. In this paper, the authors have classified storms by the intensity of temperature and wind speeds.…”
