Abstract

This paper establishes technical foundations for the determination of the expected costs resulting from system outages. Outages refer to the inability of the system to supply part or all of the system load, not to equipment outages. The paper uses static system security (system adequacy) concepts to separate regions of normal operation from regions where outages occur.
