Area

PowerSystems.AreaType
mutable struct Area <: AggregationTopology
    name::String
    peak_active_power::Float64
    peak_reactive_power::Float64
    load_response::Float64
    ext::Dict{String, Any}
    internal::InfrastructureSystemsInternal
end

A collection of buses for control purposes.

The Area can be specified when defining each ACBus or DCBus in the area

Arguments

  • name::String: Name of the component. Components of the same type (e.g., PowerLoad) must have unique names, but components of different types (e.g., PowerLoad and ACBus) can have the same name
  • peak_active_power::Float64: (default: 0.0) Peak active power in the area
  • peak_reactive_power::Float64: (default: 0.0) Peak reactive power in the area
  • load_response::Float64: (default: 0.0) Load-frequency damping parameter modeling how much the load in the area changes due to changes in frequency (MW/Hz). Example here.
  • ext::Dict{String, Any}: (default: Dict{String, Any}()) An extra dictionary for users to add metadata that are not used in simulation, such as latitude and longitude.
  • internal::InfrastructureSystemsInternal: (Do not modify.) PowerSystems.jl internal reference
