Application of Resilient Power Pilot Project
Abstract
The presented pilot project increases theresilience of power distribution against a national
transmission grid blackout through adaptive distribution
grid islanding. This function should be a basic function of
smart grids. In 2011 the project team implemented the pilot
project on a local micro-grid. The project demonstrates the
possibility of crisis demand side management that enables
necessary electricity for residents and critical infrastructure
to be provided through adaptive distribution grid islanding.
