A Spatial Analytics Framework to Investigate Electric Power-Failure Events and Their Causes

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
The U.S. electric-power infrastructure urgently needs renovation. Recent major power outages in California, New York, Texas, and Florida have highlighted U.S. electric-power unreliability. The media have discussed the U.S.

Predicting power outages caused by extratropical storms [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2021
Strong winds induced by extratropical storms cause a large number of power outages, especially in highly forested countries such as Finland. Thus, predicting the impact of the storms is one of the key challenges for power grid operators.

Power allocation for estimation outage minimization with secrecy outage constraints [PDF]

open access: yes2016 Australian Communications Theory Workshop (AusCTW), 2016
In this paper, we investigate the distortion outage minimization problem for a wireless sensor network (WSN) in the presence of an eavesdropper. The observation signals transmitted from the sensors to the fusion center (FC) are over-heard by the eavesdropper.

Outage Estimation in Electric Power Distribution Systems Using a Neural Network Ensemble

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Outages in an overhead power distribution system are caused by multiple environmental factors, such as weather, trees, and animal activity. Since they form a major portion of the outages, the ability to accurately estimate these outages is a significant ...

Synergistic Use of Nighttime Satellite Data, Electric Utility Infrastructure, and Ambient Population to Improve Power Outage Detections in Urban Areas

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
Natural and anthropogenic hazards are frequently responsible for disaster events, leading to damaged physical infrastructure, which can result in loss of electrical power for affected locations. Remotely-sensed, nighttime satellite imagery from the Suomi

Probabilistic and machine learning methods for uncertainty quantification in power outage prediction due to extreme events [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
Strong hurricane winds damage power grids and cause cascading power failures. Statistical and machine learning models have been proposed to predict the extent of power disruptions due to hurricanes.

Power Outage Fault Judgment Method Based on Power Outage Big Data

open access: yesEAI Endorsed Transactions on Energy Web, 2023
INTRODUCTION: With the deepening of the application of big data technology, the power sector attaches great importance to power outage judgment. However, many factors affect the judgment result of power outage, and the analysis process is very complicated, which can not achieve the corresponding accuracy.

Load dependence of power outage statistics [PDF]

open access: yesEPL (Europhysics Letters), 2019
The size distributions of power outages are shown to depend on the stress, or the proximity of the load of an electrical grid to complete breakdown. Using the data for the U.S. between 2002-2017, we show that the outage statistics are dependent on the usage levels during different hours of the day and months of the year.
