ACTIVSg2000: 2000-bus synthetic grid on footprint of Texas

Smiley face This ACTIVSg2000 test case is a 2000-bus power system test case that is entirely synthetic, built from public information and a statistical analysis of real power systems. It bears no relation to the actual grid in this location, except that generation and load profiles are similar, based on public data. The case includes power flow data as well as parameters for transient stability and geomagnetic disturbance studies. The case is provided in PowerWorld format, including binary (PWB/PWD), PowerWorld auxiliary text format, Matpower format, PSS/E raw format, and PSLF epc format. More about the data formats.

Please contact Adam Birchfield (abirchfield@tamu.edu) for any questions regarding this case. The references for this case can be found here, in particular [1] for the base case, [4] for the economic data, and [5] for the dynamics.

Watch and download an introductory video for the case.

The previous version (June 2016), which is described in references [1] and [4], can be downloaded here.
