One of the fastest growing consumers of Natural Gas (NG) is the electricity sector, through the use of NG-fired power plants. Already a large portion of the electricity portfolio mix in many regions in the US, NG-fired power generation is increasing even further with growing penetration of renewable energy due to the former's fast, on-demand response capabilities, and latter's characteristics of intermittency and uncertainty. As a result, NG and electricity networks are getting increasingly linked and interdependent. Tighter coordination and information sharing between electric grid operators and NG suppliers is therefore becoming highly necessary to have a resilient interdependent critical infrastructure of electricity and NG. This proposal seeks to create computational models of this infrastructure, gain analytical insight into the existing infrastructure in response to system and policy changes, and design guidelines for a coordinated infrastructure with improved resilience. These models are based, wherever possible, on real data from industrial partners and incorporate scaled versions of the electrical and NG networks of the New England area. Specific tools to reach these objectives include security constrained unit commitment, a powerful tool that provides optimal dispatch of power generation for a given network topology and policies, dynamic market mechanisms and hybrid network science, that permit analysis of uncertainty on the infrastructure, and cyber-security based resiliency tools for malicious and non-malicious events.

天然气（NG）增长最快的消费者之一是电力部门，通过使用天然气发电厂。天然气发电已经在美国许多地区的电力组合中占据了很大一部分，由于前者的快速，按需响应能力以及后者的不确定性和不确定性，随着可再生能源的渗透率不断提高，天然气发电量正在进一步增加。因此，天然气和电力网络越来越紧密地联系在一起，相互依存。因此，电网运营商和天然气供应商之间更紧密的协调和信息共享对于建立电力和天然气的弹性相互依赖的关键基础设施变得非常必要。该提案旨在创建该基础设施的计算模型，对现有基础设施进行分析，以应对系统和政策变化，并为具有更高弹性的协调基础设施设计指导方针。这些模型尽可能基于来自工业合作伙伴的真实的数据，并结合了新英格兰地区的电力和天然气网络的缩放版本。 实现这些目标的具体工具包括安全约束机组承诺，这是一个强大的工具，可以为给定的网络拓扑和策略提供最佳的发电调度，动态市场机制和混合网络科学，允许分析基础设施的不确定性，以及基于网络安全的恶意和非恶意事件的弹性工具。
