Grid simulation model creation

Gain accurate, validated equipment and power system models.

Siemens develops widely-used industry standard power system analysis software, such as PSS®E, PSS®SINCAL, and Gridscale X Advanced Protection Assessment (formerly known as PSS®CAPE). PTI Consulting is an extensive user of these and many other regional industry software applications that our customers use to develop the digital twins of their equipment and power systems for use in a wide range of studies and analyses.

Our grid simulation model development services include:

• Equipment-level to grid-level modeling
• Modeling of state-of-the-art power electronics, rotating machines, and controllers, e.g. for DER, microgrid, and renewables integration
• Modeling of industrial load, drives, and network, with their control and protection features and accounting for the industrial process characteristic
• Review and validation of models and parameters based on field measurements
• Recommendation of processes and practices for maintaining models and integrating them into enterprise data structures

Grid data consulting

Benefit from high-quality grid data and efficient data management processes and workflows.

Grid operators require valid data for planning and operation.

Using rules-based procedures, our consultants help you to reveal conflicts in data with physical, technological, or standards-related limits and to resolve them. We support utility companies striving for operational flexibility, seamless collaboration across departments, or simplified data handling by defining a suitable and efficient data management concept based on their existing IT/OT landscape and processes. Our concepts aim at achieving high flexibility and resilience in the face of increasing structural changes to the grid.

Grid expert support

Harness continuous high-quality support for power system analyses and network model maintenance.

Many operators of public grids are struggling with the effects of the rapidly increasing number of DER grid connection requests. Grid planners need to deal with more complex grid models and constantly changing conditions to identify the optimal DER placement in the grid – pressed by mandatory response times.

PTI Consulting provides grid operators with continuous support in keeping grid models up to date and quickly responding to urgent requests. Tasks are aligned with a dedicated grid planning engineer. A framework contract provides full cost control and allows for time and cost savings, especially for small, time-critical projects.
