Energy infrastructure is a critical underpinning of modern society that any compromise or sabotage of its secure and reliable operation will have a prominent impact on people's daily lives and the national economy. Past failures such as the massive northeastern power blackout in August 2003 and the recent Florida blackout in February 2008 have revealed serious defects in both system-level management and device-level designs. This project is aimed at a hardware-in-the-loop reconfigurable system with embedded intelligence and resilient coordination schemes to tackle the vulnerabilities of the power grid. The research in this project will investigate a number of critical issues related to this system, including the design of a hybrid system architecture, the development of advanced power electronic devices with embedded intelligence for reconfiguration of the power grid, the development of control- theoretic algorithms to guarantee real-time adaptation to system changes caused by various attacks, and the threats to existing state estimation algorithms and their defenses.The proposed research can help secure the grid and prevent potential outages from happening. Instead of limiting the system to manage existing devices, the developed system is adaptive to the future power grid in years to come. The power grid is a typical example of complex networks of highly interacting subsystems. Solving these fundamental problems to create a resilient power grid has a direct and immediate impact on this and other critical infrastructures.

能源基础设施是现代社会的重要支柱，对其安全可靠运行的任何损害或破坏都将对人们的日常生活和国民经济产生重大影响。过去的失败，如2003年8月的大规模东北电力停电和最近的2008年2月佛罗里达停电，都暴露了系统级管理和设备级设计的严重缺陷。该项目旨在建立一个具有嵌入式智能和弹性协调方案的硬件在环可重构系统，以解决电网的脆弱性。该项目的研究将探讨与该系统相关的一些关键问题，包括混合系统架构的设计、用于电网重构的嵌入式智能先进电力电子设备的开发、保证实时适应各种攻击引起的系统变化的控制理论算法的开发，以及对现有状态估计算法及其防御的威胁。拟议的研究可以帮助确保电网的安全，防止潜在的停电发生。开发的系统不再局限于管理现有设备，而是适应未来几年的未来电网。电网是由高度相互作用的子系统组成的复杂网络的典型例子。解决这些基本问题以创建一个有弹性的电网对这个和其他关键基础设施有直接和直接的影响。
