ABSTRACTThis paper describes in detail a process for integratingresilience goals within the Energy Master Planning Process.Focusing on the district scale, methodologies are discussed toquantify the resilience benefits of energy system designs anddetermine trade-offs between resilience and blue-sky performance.Systems are aggregated to a mission function level withthe goal of keeping critical functions online during emergencyevents. We outline how to down-select the top threats for thearea, how to apply the corresponding threat profiles and fragilitycurves to the system’s infrastructure elements, and how toevaluate resilience metrics using systems modeling techniques.Design options to improve the system’s resilience to theselected threats are suggested by the process. All steps of theprocess are applied to a notional example. The paperconcludes with a discussion of the capability gaps and a pathforward for implementing this process for energy master planners.This paper is based on research performed under theInternational Energy Agency’s Energy in Buildings andCommunities Program Annex 73, focusing on development ofguidelines and tools that support the planning of Net ZeroEnergy Resilient Public Communities as well as researchperformed under the Department of Defense EnvironmentalSecurity Technology Certification Program project EW18-D1-5281, “Technologies Integration to Achieve Resilient, Low-Energy Military Installations.”
