Towards a holistic data model for power system simulation and analysis

This work discusses the importance of a holistic data model for power systems modelling and analysis. We analyse the current landscape of methods, tools available and data required. We present a data model for simulations and analyses and outline how it could be extended to accommodate other already existing tools. For power systems modelling, we use the Julia Programming Language and its highly capable ecosystem for optimization. Regarding analyses, we conduct tests using an easily dèployable web-service based on Spring Boot and PostgreSQL. A standardised data format is used for data exchange. Visualization is facilitated by JavaScript, Leaflet and OpenStreetMap.
