PowerSimulations.jl -- A Power Systems operations simulation Library
PowerSimulations.jl is a Julia-based BSD-licensed power system operations simulation tool developed as a flexible and open source software for quasi-static power systems simulations including Production Cost Models. PowerSimulations.jl tackles the issues of developing a simulation model in a modular way providing tools for the formulation of decision models and emulation models that can be solved independently or in an interconnected fashion. This paper discusses the software implementation of PowerSimulations.jl as a template for the development and implementation of operation simulators, providing solutions to commonly encountered issues like time series read/write and results sharing between models. The paper includes a publicly-available validation of classical operations simulations as well as examples of the advanced features of the software.
