Article Abstract
In this Data Descriptor, we present county-level electricity outage estimates at 15-minute intervals from 2014 to 2022. By 2022 92% of customers in the 50 US States, Washington DC, and Puerto Rico are represented. These data have been produced by the Environment for Analysis of Geo-Located Energy Information (EAGLE-I), a geographic information system and data visualization platform created at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to map the population experiencing electricity outages every 15 minutes at the county level. Although these data do not cover every US customer, they represent the most comprehensive outage information ever compiled for the United States. The rate of coverage increases through time between 2014 and 2022. We present a quantitative Data Quality Index for these data for the years 2018-2022 to demonstrate temporal changes in customer coverage rates by FEMA region and indicators of data collection gaps or other errors.

Microgrids (MGs) have gained significant attention over the past two decades due to their advantages in service reliability, easy integration of renewable energy sources, high efficiency, and enhanced power quality. In India, low-voltage side customers face significant challenges in terms of power supply continuity and voltage regulation. This paper presents a novel approach for optimal power scheduling in a microgrid, aiming to provide uninterrupted power supply with improved voltage regulation (VR).

In today's technologically advanced landscape, precision in navigation and positioning holds paramount importance across various applications, from robotics to autonomous vehicles. A common predicament in location-based systems is the reliance on Global Positioning System (GPS) signals, which may exhibit diminished accuracy and reliability under certain conditions. Moreover, when integrated with the Inertial Navigation System (INS), the GPS/INS system could not provide a long-term solution for outage problems due to its accumulated errors.

This article presents a planning framework to improve the weather-related resilience of natural gas-dependent electricity distribution systems. The problem is formulated as a two-stage stochastic mixed integer linear programing model. In the first stage, the measures for distribution line hardening, gas-fired distributed generation (DG) placement, electrical energy storage resource allocation, and tie-switch placement are determined.

BACKGROUND Patient monitoring systems (PMSs) are essential for monitoring and managing the condition of critically ill patients. In low-resource settings, limited access to technology, low-level digital literacy, and power outage challenges are usability concerns. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the usability of the IMPALA (Innovative Monitoring in Paediatrics in Low-resource settings: an Aid to save lives) PMS optimized for use in low-resource settings by assessing the opinions and experiences of 24 healthcare professionals.
