Abstract

Power systems model information exchange and the simulation of user defined models is a challenge for Transmission System Operators (TSOs) due to the use of different simulation software with specific data format and models strongly coupled to the simulation software´s numerical routines. The use of Open Source software for simulation and modelling can help to decouple power system models from simulation tools. This work describes the design of a software tool following the Free/Libre Open Source Software philosophy to simulate equation-based models and implement a standard data format for model information exchange.
