Abstract
The installation of vast quantities of additional new sensing and communication equipment, in conjunction with building the computing infrastructure to store and manage data gathered by this equipment, has been the first step in the creation of what is often referred to as the Smart Grid.With this enormous investment in equipment, an ongoing challenge is how best to utilize, and ultimately present to the human user, the information that can be derived from this data.This presentation covers some of the new techniques for dealing with such time-varying data, which in operations might come from measurement systems such as SCADA or PMUs, while in a study context it might be generated by a time-domain simulation such as transient stability.Results will be shown for several example large-scale electric grids.
