Frameworks, quantitative indicators, characters, and modeling approaches to analysis of energy system resilience: A review

The rise of the damage to energy systems caused by both natural and man-made disruptive events and the connection between energy systems and socio-economic systems have motivated the study of energy system resilience. This paper conceptualizes and comprehensively presents a systematic review of the recent literature focused on the analytical, technical, and mathematical points from the standpoint of the energy systems facing disruptive events. To this end, five phases are developed. Firstly, the concept of the energy system resilience is presented, and then the energy resilience characters and the resilience states are introduced and connected. Thirdly, the formulation and indicators of the energy resilience are demonstrated, and modeling features, modeling approach, and solving methods are discussed and compared. Finally, the gaps in the existing literature on the energy system resilience are identified, and future research opportunities are suggested.
