METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETECTION AND NOTIFICATION OF POWER OUTAGES AND POWER QUALITY

Methods and systems for real-time power outage visualization and risk prediction include a server that detects an operational status of sensor devices connected to an electrical grid and assigns each sensor device to a group based upon the operational status and a geographic location of the sensor device. The server determines a power outage event for at least one group based upon the operational status of sensor devices and identifies a geographic area experiencing the power outage event based upon the geographic locations of the sensor devices. The server generates a visual representation of the power outage event on a map, transmits a power outage alert notification to remote computing devices associated with the geographic area experiencing the power outage event, and transmits a power outage risk notification to remote computing devices associated with a geographic area adjacent to the geographic area experiencing the power outage event.
