Abstract
Power control centers have evolved since their ground-breaking inception in the 1960s, and they are extremely important for the operation of the power system, ensuring maximum reliability. There has been much discussion about mandating reliability requirements, but for the most part, reliability standards are already in place for electricity grid design and operation. Unfortunately, these standards do not examine in detail monitoring and control, possibly due to the false belief that reliability primarily comes from redundancies in transmission and generation. The grid can operate even more closely to its limits thanks to improved grid control and monitoring, which also increase reliability. In this paper, the significant role of the power system control centers in the event of a major blackout is discussed, proving their significance in the restoration process.
