Abstract
In recent decades growing number of Information Communication Technology applications have been widely deployed in Electric Power System and bonds between these devices and system operation are getting tighter and more complex. This boosts joint analyses that consider power transmission sector, communication sector and decision-making sector together. In this paper, a hybrid object-oriented method that combines Agent Based Modelling and sequential Monte Carlo simulation is applied to study the phenomenon of cyber-induced cascading failures in power system and to explore how human operators could affect energy loss of the system. It is found that a vulnerable communication sector alone could do least harm to the system but the chance of loading shedding due to islanding would increase considerably if stochastic faults of power system components are also taken into account. Besides, conclusions are also made that timely response from operators could effectively reduce unsupplied energy, the amount of which decreases along with shorter response time of human operators.
