CURENT Large-scale Testbed

The Large-scale Testbed (LTB) is a tightly integrated, closed-loop platform for rapid prototyping of power systems. ANDES, AMS, DiME, and AGVis are four major independent sub packages of LTB that serve as a dynamic simulator, market simulator, distributed messaging environment, and grid visualizer, respectively. Towards a one-stop solution, these LTB packages can serve for both individual and federated use.

AMS is included in the newly released v2.0.

Why LTB

LTB platform enables power system dynamic simualiton, market simulation, geographical visualization, real-time simualtion, and dispatch-dynamic co-simulaiton.

Getting trouble with dispatch in a dynamic simulation? The interoperability of ANDES for scheduling supports secured dispatch in a dynamic simulation.

Getting lost in the APIs of simulators? Easy-to-use ANDES and AMS can be your last stop to prototype new algorithms and models.

Looking for a geographical visualization? AGVis allows geographical visualization with multiple options.

Interested in a real-time closed-loop simulation? LTB has integrated simulators and communication environments.
