Simulating Space Weather Extremes: Workshop to assess the preparedness of the US power grid to geomagnetic activity: Quick-Look Report
Description
We provide a quick-look at the outcomes of a three-day National Science Foundation-funded workshop that brought new understanding to the complex sun-to-power grid system by converging the range of communities that are involved. The novel workshop brought together the myriad disciplines to identify the research & development and operational gaps and to propose solutions for those gaps. We will structure the convergence through a space weather-to-power grid ‘simulation game,’ a low-risk, cost-effective environment to unite researchers, decision-makers, and operators to assess the preparedness for threats and hazards posed by space weather on the electric power grid [FEMA National Exercise Division].
The central goal of this workshop was to emerge the research and development gaps that arise from a holistic view of the sun-to-power grid system. We describe the event and provide recommendations and a link to sign up to receive the final report when published.
