Abstract

The huge presence in a carbon free energy system of the non-programmable renewable generation sources, their thermal load and mobility electrification determine issues and criticalities in continuous power systems operations. In such context, electricity security becomes a challenging task to be assured. Available software permits to singularly evaluate AC networks security, adequacy, reliability, and resilience features but a holistic approach it is still lacking. In addition, models and methods are developed only for AC power systems and they are not still implemented for DC and hybrid AC/DC grids. In this paper, authors propose an innovative software permitting to analyze, for AC, DC and hybrid electrical systems, power system security, adequacy, resilience, and reliability by an integrated approach. The proposed open-source software was implemented taking advantage of Python Programming Language and it is an open-source product of 'Evolution, planning, management and electricity networks operation' project.
