Energy internet risk assessment framework

Energy internet is a deep fusion product made up of electric power system, electrification traffic system and gas system linked by information technology. Using more complex technologies and covers larger geographical area as well as more diversity of users, it may be exposed to greater potential risks. The paper introduces the recent development status of energy internet globally. It proposes the typical energy internet structure and then set up a new framework for the risk assessment of energy internet. It analyzes the differences of risk assessment between energy internet and smart grid. It is a complicated system project for the future energy internet risk assessment research work. As it is still in the initial stage, there remains a lot of research work to be further developed.
