Space weather-induced geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs) drive geomagnetically-induced current (GIC) to flow into electric power networks, causing undesirable effects such as reactive power losses, voltage drop, current and voltage harmonics. A combination of these effects triggered blackouts in the Hy...
