The aim of this research is to develop adependable control theory for reliable electric power systems integrated with intermittent renewable sources. The systems can be regarded as a multilayer large-scale network composed of power distribution grids and information networks. Then, electric fluctuation or failure in a subsystem is sometimes magnified by source intermittency or layer interdependency, which could cause a widespread blackout. The objectives of this research are to build a mathematical model for understanding this kind of propagation and to establish a methodology for analysis and synthesis of dependability in networked systems.
