An adaptive modeling framework for simulating power system dynamics

Power system operation has changed significantly in the last several decades. Factors such as renewable energy integration and deregulation are major contributors to this change. In response, robust simulation techniques must be developed to ensure stable and reliable operation. A simulation environment that encompasses system dynamics of multiple time frames, called an Adaptive Modeling Framework, is introduced. The simulation framework is capable of modeling multiple dynamic characteristics including slow dynamics, such as transient stability, as well as long term dynamics such as frequency regulation or voltage stability.
