Dynamic probability-based power outage management system

A method for managing a power system having a power grid portion, a load portion, an energy storage portion, and at least one of a renewable energy generation portion and a fuel-based energy generation portion, the method comprising:

• generating, by a power outage scheduler responsive to an indication of an occurrence of a power outage, an outage duration prediction for the power outage;
• solving, by the power outage scheduler, an economic dispatch problem using a long-term energy optimization model;
• generating, by the power outage scheduler based on an analysis of the long-term energy optimization model, an energy management directive that controls, for a time period of the outage duration prediction, the operation of the energy storage portion and at least one of the renewable energy generation portion and the fuel-based energy generation portion;
• and
• controlling, by a power management controller responsive to the energy management directive, the operation of the energy storage portion and the at least one of the renewable energy generation portion and the fuel-based energy generation portion.
