Abstract :
The latest developments in complex network theory have provided a new direction for power system research. Based on this theory a power system can be modeled as a graph with nodes and vertices and further analysis can help in addressing typical problems such as identifying the vulnerable lines and pole fires, and locating faults. This paper reports some of our recent research in this area and discusses some potential areas in power grids where the complex network theory can be used.
