Focus Topic

An open source set of power system blocks dedicated to grid analysis and simulation.

Primary Purpose

The power system blocks may be used through scripts for a quick shot, but also be assembled to build state of the art applications.

Description

Powsybl is part of the LF Energy Foundation. One major aim of the project is to make it easy to write complex software for power system simulation and analysis.

For example, using PowSyBl one can create applications able to:

• handle a variety of formats, such as CGMES for European data exchanges, PSSE, matpower, etc.
• perform power flow simulations and security analyses on the network
• perform dynamic simulations on the network
• visualise the network and the substations

Another key characteristic of Powsybl is its modular design, at the core of the open source approach. It enables developers to extend or customize its features by providing their own plugins.
