Abstract
The ongoing transformation of the traditional power system into a more
intelligent Smart Grid has many benefits. However, it also brings
numerous challenges. The system is becoming more complex, making the
existing domain specific tools less relevant. This paper presents a
flexible co-simulation framework that supports multiple simulators,
including multiagent platform, for a detailed evaluation of the impact
and inter-dependencies between the cyber and physical components of the
system. Two case studies have been evaluated with different Smart Grid
applications, modeled and simulated with different simulators and
coupled into the developed co-simulation framework. The results show the
flexibility and useability of the proposed co-simulation framework.
