Python support for the Transactive Energy Simulation Platform
Project description
Transactive Energy Simulation Platform (TESP) simulates the electric power distribution grid with transactive control of loads and resources. Current features include:
GridLAB-D for the distribution system and residential loads
EnergyPlus for large buildings
MATPOWER or PYPOWER for the bulk power systems
Bindings for transactive agents in Python, Java or C++
The goal of TESP is that researchers can focus their work on the last item, to push advances in the field.
Installation
tesp_support can be installed using pip:
$ pip install tesp_support
However, in order to be useful, tesp_support needs custom versions of GridLAB-D and EnergyPlus. It also requires Python 3.5 or later, with Numpy, SciPy and PYPOWER. There will be cross-platform installers of the complete TESP for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X made available on GitHub.
Using TESP
This is a developer’s platform for electric power grid research. See http://tesp.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ for user instructions, and http://github.com/pnnl/tesp for source code.
