Electric Power Distribution System Reliability and Outage Costs: An Undergraduate Industry CollaborationAbstract:This paper describes an undergraduate, cross-disciplinary research into the economic effects ofpower system outages, with a focus on the Pacific Northwest region. The results of this researchare useful for utilities in their planning and assessment of electric grid reliability. The PacificNorthwest region of the United States experiences a temperate climate with brief summers andlong-lasting winters. Generally, the highest electricity demand for the region occurs during thewinter months, when heating is turned on. Therefore, an outage that occurs during winter monthsresults in additional non-financial

However, because the majority of our students are straight, white, cisgender males,advisors may be less aware of how their backgrounds and identities affect their academicexperiences. Although unintentional, treating white male engineering students as our “standard”students and students from underrepresented groups as our “special” students further normalizesthe white male standard in engineering education.
