Abstract

Due to the increasing rate of high-impact low-frequency (HILF) events, power systems are more vulnerable against the destructive climate events compared to other infrastructures. From this point of view, the primary focus of this article is to investigate the vulnerability of power systems in the face of numerous types of natural disasters in terms of resilience metrics. To achieve this goal, a mesh-structured view of the power system at the transmission level is employed to model the action mechanism from different types of natural disasters on the power system. The Monte Carlo simulation method is further applied to evaluate the resilience metrics of the power system. From the perspective of resilience, the vulnerability of the system against different types of events is finally achieved in this paper. Simulation case studies on the IEEE 30-bus test system have demonstrated that the proposed modeling can not only facilitate in upgraded schemes, but also significantly decrease the amount of damages to the power system after natural extreme events.
