“…Some papers focus on the optimal placement of remote-controlled switches so as to implement some functionalities of a smart substation. In [13], the optimal placement problem of remote-controlled switches is formulated as a weighed set-cover problem and with the objective of minimizing the total number of switches in selected basic switch groups and extended switch groups. In [14], the minimum cost of energy not supplied is achieved under reliability and flow capacity constraints, and the optimal allocation of switches is solved by the memetic algorithm.…”

Abstract-One of the major functions of a smart substation (SS) is to restore power supply to interrupted customers as quickly as possible after an outage. The high cost of a smart substation limits its widespread utilization. In this paper, a smart substation allocation model (SSAM) to determine the optimal number and allocation of smart substations in a given distribution system is presented, with the upgrade costs of substations and the interruption costs of customers taken into account. Besides, the reliability criterion is also properly considered in the model. By linearization strategies, the SSAM is simplified into a mixed integer linear programming problem which could be solved efficiently with commercial solvers. Finally, the performance of the proposed methodology is demonstrated by the standard RBTS-BUS 4 test system and a medium voltage power distribution system in Denmark.

Boosting the resilience of power systems is a core requirement of smart grids. In fact, resilience enhancement is crucial to all critical infrastructure systems. In this study, we review the current research on system resilience enhancement within and beyond smart grids. In addition, we elaborate on resilience definition and resilience quantification and discuss several challenges and opportunities for system resilience enhancement. This study aims to deepen our understanding of the concept of resilience and develop a wide perspective on enhancing the system resilience for critical infrastructures.

“…Given a limited budget, manual switches should be upgraded in such a way that the service restoration capability is maximized. A method based on weighted set cover is proposed in [76], which is intended to maximize restoration capability of an existing distribution system by upgrading a minimum number of manual switches to RCSs. The universal set of single-fault scenarios is considered.…”
