<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for restoring power that identifies back-feeding pathways that reduce the risk of cascading power failure and the need for additional network reconfigurations as a result of restoring power in a power distribution network.SOLUTION: A method for restoring power on the basis of forecasted loads is described. The method includes identifying at least one zone within a power distribution network, and predicting a first energy demand of the at least one zone. The method also includes identifying at least one alternate source of power for the at least one zone, identifying at least one switch within the power distribution network capable of supplying power from the at least one alternate source to the at least one zone, and generating a restoration plan for restoring power to the at least one zone.</p> |
