Abstract-Energy and environmental issues are two of the greatest challenges facing the world today. In response to energy needs and environmental concerns, renewable energy technologies are now considered the future technologies of choice. Renewable energy is produced from natural sources that are clean and free; however, it is widely accepted that renewable energy is not a solution without challenges. An example of this can be seen in the UK, where there is much interest amongst generation developers in the construction of new large-scale onshore and offshore wind farms, especially in Scotland. The stability of electric power systems is also an important issue. It is important to have full knowledge of the system and to be able to predict the behaviour under different situations is an important objective. As a result, several industrial-grade power system simulator tools have been developed in order to estimate the behaviour of the electric power system under certain conditions. This paper presents a reduced Great Britain (GB) system model for stability analysis using PSCAD/EMTDC. The reduced model is based upon a future GB transmission system model and, hence, contains different types and mix of generation, HVDC transmission lines and additional interconnection. The model is based on the reduced DIgSILENT PowerFactory model developed by National Grid.Index Terms-System Modeling, Software Comparison, PSCAD/EMTDC, DIgSILENT.

“…The actual number of the types of these models in the WECC system is far more. In [3], the authors evaluate more transient stability software packages such as DIgSILENT, PSSE, and PSCAD on the basis of the power system component models available in each tool and their user-friendliness. However, only a limited number of component models such as synchronous generator, generator saturation, transmission line representation and external network are compared and only one simplified test case is used.…”

Simulation of the transient stability problem of a power system, which is the assessment of the short term angular and voltage stability of the system following a disturbance, is of vital importance. It is widely known in the industry that different transient stability packages can give substantially different results for the same (or at least similar) system models. The goal of this work is to develop validation methodologies for different transient stability software packages with a focus on Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) system models. We discuss two specific approaches developed and implemented to validate the transient stability results. The sources of discrepancies seen in the results from different packages are investigated. This enables us to identify the differences in the implementation of dynamic models in different transient stability softwares. In this process, we present certain key analyses of the WECC system models for different contingencies.iii Dedicated with loving memory to my father, Sudhir L. Shetye (1949-2011 iv
