Special Session 3: Emergency Control of Urban Power Grids under Extreme Fault Conditions

Co-Chair: Hao Wu,
Tianjin University, China
While emergency-related topics can appear within the regular conference program, most existing regular sessions examine urban grid emergency control mainly from the physical power-system viewpoint and seldom adopt the integrated Cyber-Physical-Social System (CPSS) perspective that incorporates information, physical and social factors simultaneously. Grounded in a national major science and technology special project, this session emphasises CPSS-driven full-lifecycle emergency workflows including pre-disaster preparation, in-event disposal and post-fault restoration for urban extreme faults. It delivers focused, cohesive discussions bridging utility practice and academic modelling, which cannot be well-covered by scattered, general-purpose presentations distributed across multiple regular tracks.
This session targets emergency operation, resource scheduling and power restoration for urban power grids under extreme fault conditions caused by typhoons, rainstorms, ice-coating and other natural disasters. It investigates multi-time-scale risk assessment, interdependencies across power, transportation and communication infrastructures, optimisation of heterogeneous emergency resources, and adaptive restoration strategies. It integrates theoretical modelling, prototype tool development and utility-oriented engineering practices to strengthen urban grid resilience against high-impact natural hazards.
We welcome interdisciplinary contributions from operations research, industrial engineering, economics, statistics and policy science are looking forward to sharing your outstanding research outcomes.
