TRAISIM: Training Simulator for Power System Operators

Abstract

Poster presented at CRESROADS 2026 summarising progress of the TRAISIM project — an open-source real-time training simulator for power system operators, developed on top of Dynawo. The poster reports Year-1 benchmarking on the RTE 6,000-bus French transmission network, identifying the KLU Analyze symbolic factorization as the dominant bottleneck under topology-changing events, and presents the 2026 extension workplan: solver optimisation, an AI-driven Adaptive Model Selection (AMS) module based on a GATv2 graph-attention network, orchestrator co-design, and validation/dissemination. Early AMS results show a 75.7% reduction in continuous variables and over 99% accuracy on power and voltage prediction.
