Enabling Electric Distribution System Resiliency through Metrics-driven Black Start Restoration

The high impact and low probability (HILP) events on the electric distribution system have obligated utility planners to focus on resiliency enabling propositions. Recent trends show that large-scale outages due to damage and impacts to the distribution system resulting from HILP events are rising. When the distribution system sees large-scale blackouts, generation units with black start capabilit...
