PEGASE pan-European test-beds for testing of algorithms on very large scale power systems

This paper presents the methodology proposed and implemented to obtain a very large scale test model for demonstration purpose in FP7 PEGASE project. The model is meant to be representative of the European interconnected transmission network main characteristics. It will be available for public use in benchmarking and testing of power systems simulation tools, from static to dynamic simulation applications. Some simulation results from PEGASE demonstration scenarios are presented for illustration purpose.
