Abstract

The electricity sector worldwide is facing considerable pressure arising out of climate change issues, and security of supply. Electricity systems are also facing technical issues of bi-directional power flows, increasing distances of power flows, and a growing contribution from generation sources with limited dispatch capability. There is a concern that these systems are vulnerable.
