Blue Arc leads a diverse group to consensus resulting in a standardized method to measure system reliability.
Group Facilitation Assistance
Situation: A consortium of 40 transmission utilities has limited system metrics to effectively measure transmission system reliability in evolving regionally operated interconnected transmission grids. Each utility has developed individual methods for internal reliability evaluation but lacks a common industry-wide basis for comparison.
Action: Blue Arc guides and leads the diverse group of individual transmission utility providers toward the creation of commonly accepted metrics for measuring and comparing system reliability. Blue Arc conducts a series of workshops and teleconferences and facilitates technical discussions and data-sampling exercises to achieve group consensus.
Benefit: Blue Arc's facilitated activities enable the synergy of jointly developed concepts, concept maturation, evaluation, and beta-testing of performance metrics from a diverse participant base. Ultimately, the transmission utilities reach consensus on a standardized method to measure and compare system reliability that allows for individual customization to address unique challenges.
