The Risk of Load Reduction
R = H * E * V
Risk = Hazard x Exposure x Vulnerability
The hazard H is the probability of outage of a
specific severity.
The exposure E describes the Critical
Infrastructures at risk in the potential affected
supply region.
The vulnerability V is the condition of physical,
social and economic factors increasing the
susceptibility of the functioning of a SR to power
outages.

The Load Reduction Problem
What are the levels of vulnerability in
the supply regions?
What kind of critical infrastructures
are affected by decoupling selected
supply regions?
Which supply region should be chosen
to be decoupled?
How does the vulnerabiltity change
when decision maker‘s preferences
change regarding single critical
infrastructures?

Developing a Vulnerability Assessment
The general procedure of assessing vulnerability of Supply Regions (SR) based on a
Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA):
1
Definition of a hierarchical criteria framework
Definition of the normalization functions
Integration of the weighting factors
Aggregation to prioritize SRs
Visualization of results
Sensitivity analysis concerning changing weights and attribute
values accompanied by an update of the criteria framework

Conclusion
The assessment of supply region‘s vulnerabilities is essential for emergency
management and the collaborative preparedness against power outages.
The vulnerability of supply region can be assessed by an integrated multi-criteria
approach taking economic, social and physical impacts into account. The approach
enhances understanding the consequences of power outages.
The display of levels supply region‘s vulnerabilities can be used for vulnerability-
triggered load reduction in disaster risk management.
Data collection as well as the criteria weighting process need collaboration between
EMA, CI providers and stakeholders. This supports inter-organizational partnerships
for CI protection.
Future Research Directions
Analysing uncertainties (e.g. indicator selection and standardization)
Consideration of dynamic aspects resulting from (1) time limited resilience capacities
and (2) propagation of consequences by interconnected infrastructures
