Abstract

Today's electricity grid is transitioning to a so-called smart grid. The associated challenges and funding initiatives have spurred great efforts from the research community to propose innovative smart grid solutions. To assess the performance of possible solutions, simulation tools offer a cost effective and safe approach. In this paper we will provide a comprehensive overview of various tools and their characteristics, applicable in smart grid research: we will cover both the communication and associated ICT infrastructure, on top of the power grid. First, we discuss the motivation for the development of smart grid simulators, as well as their associated research questions and design challenges. Next, we discuss three types of simulators in the smart grid area: power system simulators, communication network simulators, and combined power and communication simulators. To summarize the findings from this survey, we classify the different simulators according to targeted use cases, simulation model level of detail, and architecture. To conclude, we discuss the use of standards and multi-agent based modeling in smart grid simulation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
