PowerSystems.jl

Master - CI codecov Documentation Build DOI

The PowerSystems.jl package provides a rigorous data model using Julia structures to enable power systems analysis and modeling. In addition to stand-alone system analysis tools and data model building, the PowerSystems.jl package is used as the foundational data container for the PowerSimulations.jl and PowerSimulationsDynamics.jl packages. PowerSystems.jl supports a limited number of data file formats for parsing.

Version Advisory

  • The latest tagged version in PowerSystems will work with Julia v1.6+. Julia 1.5 and 1.4 are only supported with versions 1.3 or earlier.

Device data enabled in PowerSystems

  • Generators (Thermal, Renewable and Hydro)
  • Transmission (Lines, and Transformers)
