Select and Load a Power System

PowerSystemCaseBuilder.jl offers a catalog of power system test data, already formatted and available to load as PowerSystems.System objects.

Select

View the available categories of power systems in the catalog using show_categories:

show_categories()

MatpowerTestSystems
PSIDSystems
PSIDTestSystems
PSISystems
PSITestSystems
PSSEParsingTestSystems
PSYTestSystems
SPISystems

Choose a category, or explore the SystemCategory documentation to learn about each category.

Use show_systems to see the name and description of the available PowerSystems.Systems in the selected category, e.g, PSISystems:

show_systems(PSISystems)

Build

Finally, use build_system to load your selected system:

sys = build_system(PSISystems, "5_bus_hydro_ed_sys")

Next Steps

Refer to the PowerSystems.jl documentation for how to modify the test system or build your own, and the PowerSimulations.jl and PowerSimulationsDynamics.jl documentation for how to set up and run simulations.
