The Office of Electricity (OE) provides national leadership to ensure that the Nation’s energy delivery system is secure, resilient and reliable. OE works to develop new technologies to improve the infrastructure that brings electricity into our homes, offices, and factories, and the federal and state electricity policies and programs that shape electricity system planning and market operations. energy.gov/oe

Electricity’s Role in Society
Electricity plays a vital role to our economy and national security. Most Americans can not describe what it is or where it comes from. Yet, we know the impact that electricity plays on nearly all aspects of our lives: national security; health and welfare; communications; finance; transportation; food and water supply; heating, cooling, and lighting; computers and electronics; commercial enterprise; and even entertainment and leisure.
12
Key Elements of the Electric Power System
Four major components:
- Load: Consumes electric power.
- Generation: Produces electric power.
- Transmission (and Distribution): Transmits electric power
from generation to load.
- Control Centers: Coordinate generation and transmission
assets for economy and reliability.
The traditional electric power system was based on large-scale generation; centralized, one-way control; and passive loads.
13
System Operations Focused on Reliability
- Adequacy – Ensuring that there is enough generation and
transmission capacity to meet current demand and projected future load
- Stability – Maintaining the quality of supply by avoiding dynamic
disturbances (e.g., voltage fluctuations)
- Security – Meeting demand and covering contingencies (e.g.,
reserve margin for capacity)
14
Key Trends Driving Grid Transformation
- Changing mix and characteristics of electricity generation sources that are
shifting electricity generation from relatively few large central station plants to many smaller and sometimes variable generators
- Changing demand loads in retail electricity markets resulting from
demographic and economic shifts; the adoption of more energy-efficient, end-use technologies; growing consumer participation; broader electrification; and use of electronic converters (rather than induction motors and other types of loads with favorable inertia and droop curves)
- Integration of smart grid technologies for managing complex power
systems, driven by the availability of advanced technologies that can better manage progressively challenging loads
- Growing expectations for a resilient and responsive power grid in the face
- f more frequent and intense weather events, cyber and physical attacks,
and interdependencies with natural gas and water systems
- Aging electricity infrastructure that requires new technologies to enable
better failure detection, upgrade capabilities, and improve cybersecurity

Smart Grid Data Enhances System Flexibility
“Smart Grid” data sources enable real-time precision in operations and control to dynamically optimize grid operations to adapt to changing conditions – Real-time data from distribution automation and smart meter systems significantly advances real-time operations of distribution systems and enables customer engagement through demand response, efficiency etc. – Time-synchronized phasor data, linked with advanced computation and visualization, enable advances in state estimation, real-time contingency analysis, and real-time monitoring of dynamic (oscillatory) behaviors in the system.

Microgrids as a Resiliency Resource
Microgrids enhance distribution systems by serving critical load and strengthening fast recovery capability following a major outage.
A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. A microgrid can connect and disconnect from the grid to enable it to
- perate in both grid-connected or island-
- mode. A remote microgrid is a variation of a
microgrid that operates in islanded conditions.
Residential Less than 10-kW, single-phase Small Commercial From 10-kW to 50-kW, typically three-phase Commercial Greater than 50-kW up to 10MW

Resilience Reliability
Infrastructure Resilience: Ability to reduce the magnitude and/or duration of disruptive events Resilient infrastructure can anticipate, absorb, adapt to, and/or rapidly recover from a disruptive event
Source: Sandia National Laboratories
Resilience is contextual – defined in terms of threats or hazards
A system resilient to hurricanes may not be resilient to earthquakes

Energy Resilience enables Community Resilience
The grid is the keystone infrastructure – central to a web of interconnected systems Communities are a catalyst for infrastructure resilience investment

Social Vulnerability Physical Vulnerability
Soci cial al Vulnerabil erability ity defined: “the characteristics of a person
- r group in terms of their
capacity to anticipate, cope with, resist and recover from the impacts of a natural hazard.” Blaikie, Cannon, Davis, and Wisner (1994) Hazard exposure ure is the likelihood that natural hazard events of different magnitude and scope will impact a particular area…(NRC 2006:72-3). Physical vulnerability is generally defined in terms
- f the likely damage to
the built environment that will be sustained from each of the hazard events (NRC 2006:72-3).
Hazard Exposure and Identification: Surge
Hazard Exposure (Surge) and physical vulnerability (employee home location)
* Data from “onthemap”
Social Vulnerability (SV)
People and households vary in their capacity to anticipate, cope with, respond, and recover from disasters. People and households are not randomly distributed in space. They are concentrated in fairly predictable spatial patterns based on household characteristics. These patterns increase exposure to flooding and
- ther hazards; and have
Short- and long-term consequences for socially- vulnerable populations.
“Low-income households live in low-quality homes in low-lying areas”

Example: Area with high levels of transportation dependence and hazard exposure
Areas that are darker and in surge zones have high social and physical vulnerabilities, containing households at risk to hurricane surge yet with limited evacuation capabilities.
In the urban core of Galveston, many lower quality homes are only elevated a foot or less off the ground, if at all. Here, a poorly- constructed home has slid off its foundation, and the other structural systems have also collapsed.
FINDING: Inequitable development patterns affected damage received
In contrast, a West End vacation home sits well above the surge level, a block
- ff the gulf coast, these high-quality
homes received only wind damage, which as seen here, was quite minimal.
Spatial tial disparities arities persist for
disadvantaged populations at every stage of disaster response and recovery, resulting in:
▪ Potential for redevelopment and population change ▪ Slower recovery times for minorities ▪ Permanent displacement ▪ Loss of affordable housing stock ▪ Exacerbation of pre-existing inequalities
