Prediction of geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) flowing in Japanese power grid for Carrington-class magnetic storms [PDF]
Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 AbstractLarge-amplitude geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are the natural consequences of the solar–terrestrial connection triggered by solar eruptions. The threat of severe damage of power grids due to the GICs is a major concern, in particular, at high latitudes, but is not well understood as for low-latitude power grids.
