Abstract:
The electricity system is operated more frequently closer to its security limits. This leads to higher risks of emergency and blackout situations. In case of a blackout, grid operators are in charge of a fast and secure grid restoration. The restoration includes the communication and interactions between all involved parties. Based on different blackout states and power system restoration strategies, a new control center interface for communication tasks and interactions during grid restoration is introduced. Furthermore, associated restoration tools are developed to relieve and support the grid operators. The interfaces and tools are tested for a blackout situation in Austria using an operator-training simulator.
