Gridsim has two distinctive features:
- Gridsim can model the complex interactions between energy carriers. It is not limited to a single energy carrier like electricity or heat.
- Gridsim should be seen as an open toolbox to quickly design the simulator adapted to specific needs.
Hence Gridsim expected users are researchers and developers in energy systems who need to simulated complex, multi-carrier energy systems with their control strategies.
The Gridsim simulator benefits of the power of the Python programming language. A clear object oriented design makes the simulator scalable: the number of types and instances can be increased while keeping a manageable program structure. New element(s) types are typically designed by specialising existing elements.
You can find the latest version of Gridsim on : https://github.com/gridsim/
Gridsim is a full python project thus as long as Python is installed on your system you can install it by moving in the root folder (the folder this README file should be) and run :
python setup.py install
In some systems you need Administrator right to run this command.
Warning : Gridsim requires these packages to be used in full :
- numpy
- scipy
- matplotlib
- pint
- enum34
You can find the full documentation on : http://gridsim.hevs.ch
A documentation also is provided with this release in './doc' folder.
If you find any bugs, or if you want new features you can put your request on github at the following address : https://github.com/gridsim/gridsim
