A software platform to support the energy system resilience study

Abstract

The paper addresses the problem of supporting research of the energy systems resilience. The resilience is concerned with the energy system ability to withstand large disturbances. To reach the goal of creating user-friendly software for decision making support in that field, a software platform is considered. It includes some original frameworks for retrieving, gathering, querying and analysing data, and building thematic maps to produce disturbance scenarios and evaluate consequences of their impact. The main advantage of the proposed platform is its applicability for all the stages of the energy system resilience research starting from risk mitigation assessment and ending with comparing alternative recovering or reconstruction strategies.
