Betweenness and number of roles for Korean blackout management organizations. Each line represents a different organization. As the majority of organizations are periphery actors, they have low betweenness compared to few central, coordinating organizations. These central and important organizations are labelled: name (number of crisis management roles). Results demonstrate that few organizations from both electric power and emergency management sectors are the key crisis coordinator for different blackout risks, specifically KEPCO, KPX, and NEMA. In contrast, MOTIE and MOSPA are key decision-making organizations, yet they remain periphery to information brokerage.
