Abstract: A quantitative framework is developed to assess the resilience of an electric infrastructure system, including the contributions of temporary service systems. The framework incorporates five dimensions of resilience – robustness, resourcefulness, redundancy, rapidity, and readjust-ability – under various setups for supplementary generation. It differentiates and prioritizes affected end-users. Notional examples illustrate the framework. The formula-based framework demonstrates the resilience contribution of temporary distributed generation (DG) technologies, and shows how differentiating among affected end-users supports the assessment of system resilience.
