Description
The infrastructure supporting the electricity supply system is considered critical, as it is essential for maintaining a safe and reliable source of low-emission power. Electrical grid redundancy refers to the incorporation of backup power resources and alternative pathways within the grid to mitigate the risk of single points of failure and to ensure uninterrupted electricity delivery during disruptions, including climate-related natural disasters such as wildfires. This can be accomplished through strategies such as deploying multiple transmission lines, substations, redundant power supply units, and distributed generation. These measures enable efficient rerouting or restoration of power, thereby reducing downtime and enhancing overall grid reliability.
