Microgrid Resilience Enhancement with Sensor Network-Based Monitoring and Risk Assessment Involving Uncertain Data by Tangxiao Yuan, Kossigan Roland Assilevi, Kondo Hloindo Adjallah, Ayité Sénah A. Ajavon, Huifen Wang

“…Subsequently, a decision risk assessment framework is constructed, integrating data quality evaluation and operational risk considerations, to drive strategy optimization through in-depth data analysis. At the application level, this framework is successfully applied to two critical decision-making scenarios: the first is to optimize the power allocation strategy between solar energy and the auxiliary grid, aiming to maximize cost efficiency and minimize power outage losses; the second is to develop low-risk maintenance plans based on the predicted failure probabilities of microgrid components with uncertain information. …”
