🔌 Ensuring Power System Resilience in the Face of Extreme Events Understanding the criticality of power systems in sustaining essential services during rare but severe incidents like natural disasters is paramount. Distinguishing between reliability, resilience, and robustness is key to effective preparation for extreme events. Resilience is an emerging technical concept crucial for power systems and other infrastructures, distinct from reliability, robustness, and security. Here's a breakdown: - Reliability centers on high-probability, low-impact events. - Resilience tackles high-impact, low-probability events. - Robustness signifies a system's stability amidst uncertainties. Resilience involves restoration and recovery mechanisms influenced by human decisions and operational procedures, requiring new cost-benefit analyses and societal contributions due to broader social impacts. Community impact and response play a pivotal role in resilience, emphasizing the need for separate yet coordinated studies. With the escalating challenges posed by climate change on power systems and renewable energy sources, bolstering system resilience is imperative. Explore the future of testing with Impedyme to enhance your power system and grid models' resilience against extreme events. Key Takeaways: - Resilience addresses infrequent events with widespread and prolonged impacts. - It is crucial in the face of climate-related challenges affecting power systems and renewable energy sources. #PowerSystems #Resilience #Infrastructure #NaturalDisasters #Reliability #Robustness #ClimateChange #ElectricTransportation #ICT #Impedyme #PHIL #Simulation #EngineeringExcellence #FutureOfTesting

Championing digitalization for blue-collar workers, I use passion and voice to drive change. Engaging with my articles amplifies their reach, motivating continued writing.
This wire represents the most thrilling and significant advancement in over a century. It's undeniably the solution to numerous challenges and a vital component for the future. Every lineman across the country is eagerly anticipating its arrival. Imagine tripling the power flow within the same transmission corridor—more value for your right-of-way investment, delighted investors, and positive PR for the power company. But for me, as a lineman, it means much more. It means putting food on the table, affording my children's braces, building a college fund, and pursuing family dreams. These projects transcend mere profit; they impact people's livelihoods. In essence, if you want a greatful man , save his life. If you want a loyal man, save his livelihood.

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Critical infrastructure protection (CIP) refers to protecting vital systems and assets like energy, transportation, telecommunications, etc. that are crucial for a country's security and economy. The meaning of "critical" infrastructure depends on political and public perceptions, not just technical assessments. When disruption causes a crisis of trust in government, that indicates an infrastructure's criticality. The concept originated in the US in the 1990s and has since been adopted by many countries. However, there is no standardized definition or common understanding of CIP. There are differing perspectives on CIP based on whether infrastructure is seen as inherently critical (symbolic criticality) or critical because of its connections to other systems (systemic criticality). #criticalinfrastructure #criticalinfrastructureprotection

Multiple levels of functionality through a complex integration of supply chains that coexist interoperable but not interdependent. This assures system stability despite fluctuations in climate or energy and materials throughput, including backup and fallback capacities. Layered design is vital for assuring that the systems 'works no matter what'. https://lnkd.in/eReJDKVw #thevenusproject #venusproject #oprojetovenus #elproyectovenus #resourcebasedeconomy #roxannemeadows #ПроектВенера #contingencyplanning
