Risk-aware stochastic scheduling of multi-market energy storage systems
Gabriel D. Patrón, Di Zhang, Lavinia M. P. Ghilardi +9
Energy storage promotes the integration of renewables by operating with charge and discharge policies that balance an intermittent power supply. A key challenge in this emerging se…
Uncovering Load-Altering Attacks Against N-1 Secure Power Grids: A Rare-Event Sampling Approach
Maldon Patrice Goodridge, Subhash Lakshminarayana, Alessandro Zocca
Load-altering attacks targetting a large number of IoT-based high-wattage devices (e.g., smart electric vehicle charging stations) can lead to serious disruptions of power grid ope…
Analysis of Cascading Failures Due to Dynamic Load-Altering Attacks
Maldon Patrice Goodridge, Alessandro Zocca, Subhash Lakshminarayana
Large-scale load-altering attacks (LAAs) are known to severely disrupt power grid operations by manipulating several internet-of-things (IoT)-enabled load devices. In this work, we…
Analysis of Load-Altering Attacks Against Power Grids: A Rare-Event Sampling Approach
Maldon Patrice Goodridge, Subhash Lakshminarayana, Christopher Few
By manipulating tens of thousands of internet-of-things (IoT) enabled high-wattage electrical appliances (e.g., WiFi-controlled air-conditioners), large-scale load-altering attacks…
Hopping between distant basins
Maldon Goodridge, John Moriarty, Jure Vogrinc +1
We present the Basin Hopping with Skipping (BH-S) algorithm for stochastic optimisation, which replaces the perturbation step of basin hopping (BH) with a so-called skipping propos…
