DownloadGridLAB-D is a new power system simulation tool that provides valuable information to users who design and operate electric power transmission and distribution systems, and to utilities that wish to take advantage of the latest smart grid technology. It incorporates advanced modeling techniques with high-performance algorithms to deliver the latest in end-use load modeling technology integrated with three-phase unbalanced power flow, and retail market systems. Historically, the inability to effectively model and evaluate smart grid technologies has been a barrier to adoption; GridLAB-D is designed to address this problem.

Very poor coding styles. Over claim in the manual. The source codes no longer Linux environment anymore. Not sure about Mac environments. Poorly maintained documentation. You need to try and guess. I was unlucky, got my Ubuntu OS crashed.

Not that easy to use in the start, but eventually you’ll get the hang of it. Then you’ll know it’s great! Very supportive developers, just be patient for their response, maybe they’re busy too. Over all, one of the best software developed.

Ferramenta que apresenta elevado potencial para elaborar estudos energéticos, especialmente dirigidos a Conservação de Energia. Entretanto, é necessário muita dedicação e destreza para modelar e simular situações diversas a fim de aproveitar a potencialidade desse recurso.
