modernization and the energy transition to allow more green electrons to flow while improving grid reliability, safety, sustainability, and affordability. The many parts and pieces of today's grid infrastructures are insufficient to integrate more renewable resources and maintain supply through extreme external conditions, such as heatwaves or storms. The electric transmission and distribution system needs to be built with seamless bidirectional flow of electricity and secured data while considering hierarchical resilience upon network disruptions. To address these challenges and unlock sustainable development, utilities are embracing grid innovations and digital transformation across transmission and distribution infrastructures. Grid innovation examples of analytics for automatic and online condition monitoring of grid networks and equipment are presented to improve grid reliability/ Subs Path 26 and Big Creek Region Relay Redundant, Diversely Routed Communication Paths North of Lugo Region East of Lugo Region GCC/AGCC Triple Redundant Servers GCC AGCC Router Devers/Valley Region 12 34 5A 5B 5C 01 23 45 67 89 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Time in Cycles Time Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5A Step 5B Step 5C at 0 Cycle at 1 Cycle at 5 Cycles at 7 Cycles at 10 Cycles at 12 Cycles at 16 Cycles Operational Events Relay Processing time for Trip Signal to CBs Open CBs for Line/Transformer Out RAS Logic Processing for Trip Signal to CBs to Trip Generators Open CBs Associated With 12 Generators (I Batch Mitigation) Open CBs Associated With Four Generators (II Batch Mitigation) Open CBs Associated With Two Generators (III Batch Mitigation) Mitigation Generation Tripping/Load Shedding RAS Processing 1 Cycle = 16.7 milliseconds Three Phase Fault on the Bus Event Detection Fault Clearing figure 12.
