An Open-Source Industrial-Grade Collection of Renewable Energy Source Generic Models in Modelica Language

In a context of massive penetration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in the grid, it is of prime importance for Transmission System Operator (TSO) to correctly represent these components in their day-to-day dynamic simulations used to assess system stability, both in operational and planning situations. Well-parametrized generic Power Electronics Interfaced Resources (PEIR) models have emerged as a viable option for TSOs for large-scale stability situations, and are largely available in commercial power system software. However, despite previous efforts in the open-source community, especially in the Modelica one, there is a lack of a complete, up-to-date, and industrial-grade library. This paper presents the current status of the Dynaωo Modelica library for standard PEIR models that tries to fill this gap. The library’s architecture and content, the implementation choices, and already existing industrial usages of the models are presented in detail, alongside validation cases and results.
