Despite the best efforts of electricity grid planners and operators, the number of major electrical blackouts around the world is growing year on year, whether caused by natural disaster or human triggered events. These blackouts often come at incredible cost to businesses and society at large – the recent Great East Japan Earthquake left up to 8 million people without power for over 10 days, and a cascading failure in 2012 in India left more than 9 % of the world’s population without electricity.

This White Paper considers preparation for, and recovering from, major electricity outages, with a focus on measures at the customer side of the electricity system. It is the fourth in a series of White Papers by the IEC MSB (Market Strategy Board), whose purpose is to ensure the IEC International Standards and Conformity Assessment services
continue to contribute to solving global issues in electrotechnology.
