Validation of Phasor-Domain Transmission and Distribution Co-simulation Against Electromagnetic Transient Simulation

Conference ·
The rapid deployment of renewable energy resources has led to the widespread use of power electronics in modern power systems. As these systems transition from being dominated by large synchronous machines to increasingly incorporating inverter-based resources (IBRs), traditional methods are becoming inadequate. Addressing this challenge, this paper introduces a scalable phasor-domain T\&D co-simulation framework based on open-source software. It focuses on the framework's validation against the PSCAD Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) analysis tool. The validation results demonstrate the framework's high-fidelity and a computational time speed-up of 60 to 100 times, marking a pioneering validation effort in T\&D co-simulation research.
