Accurate network modeling

Modeling transmission lines – from generation to the end-use customers – with all associated equipment is the basis of any sound network simulation.

Planning system assets and ratings

Minimize energy losses and optimize operation with proper planning of transmission networks and on-site generation units.

System analysis for improved network efficiency

Simulate different operating conditions, assess the stability of a transmission system under different contingencies and loading conditions and examine cost-efficient operational alternatives.

Network modelling

Network Editor

The Network Editor features a user-customizable graphical user interface underlying the CYMDIST applications and the complementary CYME analyses modules.
