From GridLAB-D Wiki
We'll be deploying 1.43 to ShoutWiki sites this weekend. Staff will be working all weekend to deal with any unforeseen bugs that crop up.
CreateWiki will not be available immediately after the upgrade; however, we expect the rewrite to be completed during this release cycle.
Grizzly (Version 2.3) is a current development branch of GridLAB-D and is expected to lead to the release of Grizzly (Version 2.3) in December 2011. The current plans include the following new capabilities:
Analysis objectives
- Development of microgrid capabilities within GridLAB-D, including the ability to simulate multiple voltage sources, distributed generators, and various other aspects unique to microgrids.
- Development of CHP models incorporated into GridLAB-D so that waste heat can be used to offset the heating requirements within building models, reducing overall energy and fuel consumption.
- Development of a microgrid model based on an actual operational system to be determined during the project time interval.
- Analysis of the developed microgrid model, including the effects on energy efficiency, fuel usage, carbon emissions, and various other metrics.
- Analysis of the benefits of dual-objective control on the developed microgrid model versus single-objective controls. This will include analysis of benefit metrics such as peak load reduction, carbon emissions, and energy consumption.
- Analysis of the benefits of CHP on the developed microgrid model, including quantification of decreased carbon emissions and fuel consumption.
