Abstract:
Energy Informatics (EI) is the area of research that addresses the application of technology to resolve complex problems within the energy domain. Goebel et al. have provided an EI research framework that attempts to encompass all aspects of EI research. Due to the rapid improvements in EI, there are uncharted research areas that were not incorporated into the framework. Specifically, we posit that grid reliability is an underrepresented research area and should be incorporated into the framework. The goal of this research in progress is to bring forth grid reliability research and present to the community as a viable, important, and bountiful research domain. In this work-in-progress, we raise the need for grid reliability research, define grid reliability, and provide the Enhanced EI Research Framework.
