The Pursuit for a Generalized Simulation Framework for Power System Transients and Stability

As a critical infrastructure, the electric energy system is undergoing an unprecedented transition towards sustainability. While the integration of renewables, responsive “smart” loads, and remote control techniques improves economics and sustainability, it also poses significant challenges to grid stability and dynamics. The traditional approach of using differential-algebraic equations to model power system components faces challenges due to the high complexity of renewable models and the heterogeneity of smart devices. To tackle this complexity, ANDES, a computer-assisted symbolic-numeric framework is presented. It enables rapid prototyping of complex grid models for large-scale studies and has been developed open-source for research and education. The second part of the talk will focus on generalizing the simulation models and solution methods for multi-timescale dynamic simulations, including electromagnetic transients and stability, for a general-purpose solver.
