Port of MATPOWER to Python.
Project description
-----
Pylon
-----
Pylon is a free software package for simulation of electric power systems and
energy markets. Its purpose is to provide a simple yet powerful tool for
electric power Engineers that is not tied to proprietary software and can be
used and extended easily.
Pylon's features currently include:
* DC and AC (Newton's method & Fast Decoupled) power flow,
* DC and AC optimal power flow,
* State estimation,
* PSS/E, MATPOWER_ and PSAT_ data file parsers, and
* Agent-based market simultaion using reinforcement learning methods.
-----------
Quick start
-----------
With Python_, setuptools_ and SciPy_ installed, run::
# easy_install pylon
Pylon performs an AC power flow and prints a ReStructuredText_ report by
default::
$ pylon data_file.raw
Refer to the documentation for detailed usage information or type::
$ pylon --help
