Given the incidence of blackouts during recent years, there has been an increased interest in understanding them to increase system reliability in the future. Multiple research efforts have been devoted to cascading models, ...

We reviewed the literature focusing on nineteen integrated Energy System Models (ESMs) to: (i) identify the capabilities and shortcomings of current ESMs to analyze adequately the transition towards a low-carbon energy system; ...

The system reliability depends on the reliability of its components itself. Therefore, it is necessary a methodology capable of inferring the state of functionality of these components to establish reliable indices of ...
