PowerSimulator

Simulation for a reliable grid

Unprecedented reliability matched with the ability to simulate some of the most devastating system events
System Restoration, Ferranti Rise, Weak sourcebusses, Duck Curve – all with the operator in mind.

​

Knowledge transfer from experience, seasoned operators to operators in training that is engaging and realistic for the reliability of the constantly evolving grid.

Advantages

Native Web Solution

Native, scalable cloud infrastructure that allows realistic simulation role playing for multiple logged on users with software already existing in their computer. 

Compliance

Stay compliant with NERC PER-005 and 006. Prove operator ability to do a task with realistic simulation so they are ready to respond when grid reliability and lives are at stake and keep critical records of their training.

User Friendly Interface

Operators are up and running fast with the incredibly user friendly interface reducing greatly the learning curve to start working and seeing results.

The Challenges:

​

The constant changing nature of the grid

 

Increase of renewable energy

​

The lost experience of a retiring work force

​

Task proficiency can't be tested on the live grid​

​

Public Safety Power Shut off never seen before

​

Increase of hurricanes, fires and natural disasters

​

Cyber-security breaches in a more connected than ever before world

​

Different tools used by planning engineers and operations

​

"Simulation has brought 'realism' to the drills. The ability to see and use the concepts in a way that makes sense and is 'valid' is key. No other simulation package is as easy to use and as accessible as Powersimulator"
