Dynamic Islanding Readiness Scheme (DIRS): Real-Time Grid Resilience through Automated Load Balancing

Urban power systems with high load density and strong dependence on external grid support are particularly vulnerable to disturbances leading to sudden islanding. Stable islanded operation in such networks requires accurate and timely balancing of internal generation and load. Conventional islanding schemes based on static relay settings and predefined load shedding stages often lack the flexibility to respond effectively to rapidly changing operating conditions.
