Continuously expanding deployments of distributed power-generation systems (DPGSs) are
transforming the conventional centralized power grid into a mixed distributed electrical …

Natural disasters can cause large blackouts. Research into natural disaster impacts on
electric power systems is emerging to understand the causes of the blackouts, explore ways …

Microgrids with distributed generation (DG) provide a resilient solution in the case of major
faults in a distribution system due to natural disasters. This paper proposes a novel …

Natural disasters such as Hurricane Sandy can seriously disrupt the power grids. To
increase the resilience of an electric distribution system against natural disasters, this paper …

Microgrids can act as emergency sources to serve critical loads when utility power is
unavailable. This paper proposes a resiliency-based methodology that uses microgrids to …

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 …

The resilience and reliability of modern power systems are threatened by increasingly
severe weather events and cyber-physical security events. An effective restoration …

The catastrophic blackout events and ever-increasing penetration of renewable power
generation highlight an advanced restoration strategy to effectively and reliably employ …

Microgrid is an important component of the evolving smart-grid. It has the ability to increase
reliability, decrease costs, and enlarge penetration rates for distribution generation systems …

Power system restoration has attracted more attention and made great progress recently.
Research progress of the power system restoration from 2006 to 2016 is reviewed in this …
