PowerSystemCaseBuilder.jl

Overview

PowerSystemCaseBuilder.jl is a Julia package that provides a library of power systems test cases using the PowerSystems.jl data model: PowerSystems.System.

PowerSystemCaseBuilder.jl is a simple tool to build power systems ranging from 5-Bus systems to entire grid systems for the purpose of testing or prototyping power system models. This package facilitates the open sharing of data sets for power systems modeling.

The main features include:

  • Comprehensive and extensible library of power systems for modeling.
  • Automated serialization/de-serialization of cataloged PowerSystems.Systems.

PowerSystemCaseBuilder.jl is an active project under development, and we welcome your feedback, suggestions, and bug reports.

About Sienna

PowerSystemCaseBuilder.jl is part of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's Sienna ecosystem, an open source framework for power system modeling, simulation, and optimization. The Sienna ecosystem can be found on Github. It contains three applications:

  • Sienna\Data enables efficient data input, analysis, and transformation
  • Sienna\Ops enables enables system scheduling simulations by formulating and solving optimization problems
  • Sienna\Dyn enables system transient analysis including small signal stability and full system dynamic simulations

Each application uses multiple packages in the Julia programming language.
