SIMPOW®


Simpow is a highly integrated software for simulation of power systems. It covers a wide field of network applications but focusing mainly on dynamic simulation in time domain and analysis in frequency domain. Simpow also has a built-in programming language in which the user in great detail can tailor their own models and methods, used at the development stage and at detailed studies.

Simpow is used, and has been used since 1977, in many projects for system interaction studies for HVDC, HVDC Light, FACTS and wind power plants.  The unique simulation and analysis features ensure an efficient planning, upgrading and utilisation of electrical power networks.

The unique simulation and analysis features ensure an efficient planning, upgrading and utilisation of electrical power networks for power production, transmission and distribution, steel industries, paper mills, chemical industries and oil production industries. Simpow is used as an analysing tool by consultant engineers, universities as a laboratory tool for training under- and postgraduates and commercial research institutes.
