A Scorecard Approach to Track Reliability Performance of Distribution System Operators

• Firstly, this paper reviews the current process of reporting reliability data in Sweden. Limitations of reliability indices such as SAIDI and SAIFI are discussed and the need for more reliability measures is stated. The paper suggests the introduction of a reliability performance scorecard to analyse reliability measures in an organized system under different aspects. Furthermore, a set of measurements is provided that can be used to assess a utility’s reliability performance. The use of the scorecard is discussed and its applicability for implementing and tracking regulations. This would result in a better policy-making and a decreased pressure on electric utilities due to a higher understanding of what companies invest to achieve a reliable supply of energy.
