DIgSILENT announces

PowerFactory 15.2
DIgSILENT has set standards and trends in power system modelling, analysis and
simulation for more than 25 years. The proven advantages of the PowerFactory
software are its overall functional integration, its applicability to the modelling
of generation, transmission, distribution and industrial grids and the analysis of
the interactions of these grids.
PowerFactory 15.2 completes the successful series of PowerFactory version 15
releases. The latest release comes with a broad range of new functions, new
electrical models and extensions to the existing modelling suite. Special attention
has been paid to improved calculation and simulation performance. Moreover,
a variety of new features for improved result visualisation and graphical
representation has been made available. With its rich analysis and modelling
capabilities, PowerFactory is perfectly suited for network planning and operation
studies of increasingly smart grids.
