Abstract: | This paper presents an application of Bayesian networks (BN) to the problem of reliability assessment of power systems. Bayesian networks provide a flexible means of representing and reasoning with probabilistic information. Uncertainty and dependencies are easily incorporated in the analysis. Efficient probabilistic inference algorithms in Bayesian networks permit not only computation of the loss of load probability but also answering various probabilistic queries about the system. The advantages of BN models for power system reliability evaluation are demonstrated through examples. Results of a reliability case study of a multi-area test system are also reported |
