Network Planning

9.3 Software Solutions

Adaptation to the control room applications of any vendor, Adaptation of the power system models of any vendor to the SIGUARD format, Adaptation to the power system specic requirements (e.g. grid code). Within the SIGUARDSolutions trainings on the following topics are offered: Power system dynamics Voltage stability assessment

Transient stability assessment

Small signal stability assessment Handling of the SIGUARD software components In addition, as consultants we provide ongoing support when it comes to system studies regarding special protection schemes, remedial actions, power system and protection planning. PSSODMS PSSODMS is a data management and network applications suite centered on the international standards Common Information Model (CIM) and Generic Interface Denition (GID). Siemens PTIs Operational Database Maintenance System (ODMS) and Power System Simulator for Operations (PSS/O) have been integrated into PSSODMS, making this product one of the most advanced network modeling and applications tools for network operation and network planning (g. 9.3-8). PSSODMS is designed to create or install into a CIM environment, and optionally to either create or install into a GID-based enterprise platform. It offers the user tools to: Decipher models from many different sources Import and export a full model, partial models and incremental models Aggregate the models Create future study scenarios Apply an extensive set of business rules to increase the accuracy of the resulting model Store that model in an open, industry-standard database structure that may be used by many current and future applications Convert operations models to planning models. The integrated PSSO functionality comprises: Topology processor State estimation Real-time power ow Contingency analysis Outage ranking Real-time mode and study mode. MOD MOD (Model On Demand) signicantly extends the capabilities of PSSE by enabling the user to manage a great number of change cases for PSSE. MOD assembles sets of model changes into projects (g. 9.3-9). Projects can then be managed and organized in various fashions depending on the needs of the PSSE user.

These modeling projects are coupled with MOD seasonal and annual proles to provide the PSSE user with a procedure for organizing and reorganizing system investigations. All this can be done without generating a great number of PSSE base cases or repeatedly rerunning PSSE cases when planning sequence changes. MOD delivers PSSE formatted power ow models which can be processed and utilized by the full PSS Product Suite. MOD revolutionizes transmission planning data manipulation and the generation of major study data sets. MOD allows the system study engineer to: Organize and reorganize study cases without the need to generate a multitude of PSSE base cases Store a single master network model Accommodate seasonal and annual prole data sets
