Transmission Planning and Operations
PowerWorld customers include many leading Independent
System Operators (ISO) and utilities of all sizes. This page
includes resources for using PowerWorld software and
services to analyze and visualize transmission operations
and expansion planning.

Adobe Flash Player, version 7 or higher)
PowerWorld Software and Services
- Simulator ATC (Available Transfer Capability):
calculates capacity of transmission network to support
power transfers, subject to transmission line and
interface limits; may be used with or without
contingencies.
- Simulator PVQV (Voltage Stability Tools):
calculates capacity of transmission network to support
power transfers, subject to static voltage stability margins
(PV curve); Also determines reactive power load margins at
specified locations (QV); May be used with or without
contingencies.
- One-line Diagrams (Transmission Atlas):
graphical power system representation for visualization
and interaction with PowerWorld products
