Description
Summary:This paper summarizes the various user-friendly options that power system analysis and simulation software tools offer today with varied add-ons and premium modules. The authors' main intention is to present the information and key features of available software tools in power engineering. Based on the study presented in this paper, one could conclude that the advanced analysis methodology combines generation, transmission, various elements, and market economics into one virtual environment to deliver location, time, user-dependent analysis results, and indicators. The authors hope that the information furnished in this paper is helpful to potential users in industry and academia, and enables them to make the right decision before purchasing appropriate software.
