PowerSimulationsDynamics.jl

PowerSimulationsDynamics.jl is a Julia package for power system modeling and simulation of Power Systems dynamics. The objectives of the package are:

• Provide a flexible modeling framework that can accommodate different device models according to modeling needs.

• Streamline the construction of large scale differential equations problems to avoid repetition of work when adding/modifying model details.

• Exploit Julia's capabilities to improve computational performance of large scale power system dynamic simulations.

• Provide State-of-Art modeling to assess Low-Inertia Power Systems.

Check the Project Section to see the pipelines of new models to be added.
