Localized Threats: How Ground Conductivity Shapes the Geoelectric Response
Abstract Geomagnetic storms can induce strong geoelectric fields in the ground. These fields drive geomagnetically induced currents in technological conductor systems, such as power grids. In this study, we analyze 4‐hr periods of two such major geomagnetic storms: the Halloween storm (29–31 October 2003) and the 7–8 September 2017 storm.

Abstract It is important to be able to accurately predict geoelectric field behavior so that potential space weather hazards to large grounded infrastructure, such as electric power grids, smart grids, oil and gas pipelines, and railway systems, can be better understood.

Abstract Space weather results in risks to gas pipelines in the form of both hazardous levels of pipe‐to‐soil potentials during extreme geomagnetic storms, and accumulated corrosion through less severe, but continuous geomagnetic activity. Here we report on calculations of pipe‐to‐soil potentials during a simulated extreme storm, using both direct ...

Abstract Substorms are often described by a loading‐unloading cycle, where onset follows gradual accumulation of solar wind magnetic flux in the magnetosphere. Yet observations indicate that intense substorms can also be directly driven, though the underlying mechanism remains unresolved.

Characterisation of grain orientated electrical steels under high DC biased conditions [PDF]
Power transformers are designed to operate under pure AC excitation, however they may be subjected to superimposed DC voltages and consequential offset currents, for example from geomagnetically induced currents, GICs, arising from solar activity.

Methodology for simulation of geomagnetically induced currents in power systems
To assess the geomagnetic hazard to power systems it is useful to be able to simulate the geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) that are produced during major geomagnetic disturbances.

Validation of geomagnetically induced current modelling code [PDF]
A paper by Horton et al. (2012) details a test grid containing 8 substations with 15 transformers connected by 15 lines. The paper gives detailed information about location, resistances and connections including features such as capacitors, delta and ...
