The Grid: Stronger, Bigger, Smarter?: Presenting a Conceptual Framework of Power System Resilience.

INCREASING THE RESILIENCE of critical power infrastructures to high-impact, low-probability events, such as extreme weather phenomena driven by climate change, is of key importance for keeping the lights on. However, what does resilience really mean? Should we build a stronger and bigger grid or a smarter one? This article discusses a conceptual framework of power system resilience, its key features, and potential enhancement measures. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
