The statistical tools of Complex Network Analysis are of great use to understand salient properties of complex systems, may these be natural or pertaining human engineered infrastructures. One of these that is receiving growing attention for its societal relevance is that of electricity distribution. In this paper, we present a survey of the most important scientific studies investigating the properties of several Power Grids infrastructures using Complex Network Analysis techniques and methodologies. We categorize and explore the most relevant literature works considering general topological properties, differences between the various graph-related indicators and reliability aspects.
Pagani and Aiello, in REF , present a survey of the most relevant work using complex network analysis to study the power grid.
