As climate change increases the risk of large-scale wildfires, wildfire ignitions from electric
power lines are a growing concern. To mitigate the wildfire ignition risk, many electric utilities …

Abstract The Optimal Power Shutoff (OPS) problem is an optimization problem that makes
power line de-energization decisions in order to reduce the risk of igniting a wildfire, while …

Electric grid faults are increasingly the source of ignition for major wildfires. To reduce the
likelihood of such ignitions in high risk situations, utilities use preemptive de‐energization of …

Wildfires ignited by the power lines have become increasingly common over the past
decade. Enhancing the operational and financial resilience of power grids against wildfires …

To ensure the sustainability of the future power grid, the rate of expansion of distributed
energy resources (DERs) has introduced operational challenges. These include managing …

Electric grid faults are increasingly the source of ignition for major wildfires. To reduce the
likelihood of such ignitions in high risk situations, utilities use pre-emptive deenergization of …

Faults on power lines and other electric equipment are known to cause wildfire ignitions. To
mitigate the threat of wildfire ignitions from electric power infrastructure, many utilities …

Electric power infrastructure has ignited several of the most destructive wildfires in recent
history. Preemptive power shutoffs are an effective tool to mitigate the risk of ignitions from …

The increasing number of wildfires in recent years consistently challenges the safe and
reliable operations of power systems. To prevent power lines and other electrical …

In an effort to reduce power system-caused wildfires, utilities carry out public safety power
shutoffs (PSPSs), in which portions of the grid are deenergized to mitigate the risk of ignition …
