, they foster their knowledge in diverse engineeringaspects.The development of a state energy assurance plan is, without a doubt, an opportunity that cannotbe found in any curricular program. Students found this project to be a practical exercise tounderstand the interdependencies within the diverse energy sectors and as well as thevulnerabilities of the energy systems infrastructure. Moreover, they were able to analyze theimportance of reliable and resilient systems and its importance over energy assurance planning.The project also afforded a valuable opportunity to research new emerging technologies that arecurrently being developed to enhance reliability and resiliency of energy systems.
