Abstract

This chapter presents three case studies using the models and methods for risk analysis of electricity supply described in Chap. 7, as well as the basic concepts and interdependency modelling of Chaps. 2 and 4. The case studies comprise analyses of the reliability of supply for delivery points in the transmission and distribution grid, and a risk and vulnerability analysis including extraordinary events in the electricity system.
