Abstract
The University of Central Florida invention is a Multi-Agent
Open Distribution System Simulator (MA-OpenDSS). The invention is built on
OpenDSS and incorporates asynchronous local communication, dynamic behaviors of
distributed resources, and a host of distributed optimization and control
algorithms. This software has applications in electric power systems and
utility industries.
Benefit
Effective, open-source tool to conduct simulations of distributed energy resources (DERs) and their controls, distribution and/or transmission networksEnables the development of advanced distribution management system functionsMarket Application
Power system researchersUtility and industry engineers
