Group Description
Texas A&M Smart Grid Center: synthetic (yet realistic) power system grids

Group name: TAMU_SmartGridCenter

Synthetic electric grid models are fictitious representations that are
designed to be statistically and functionally similar to actual electric
grids while containing no confidential critical energy infrastructure
information (CEII).  Some of these cases were developed with the support
of the U.S. DOE ARPA-E Grid Data program; their support is gratefully
acknowledged.

Matrix: ACTIVSg2000

Title: Power flow Jacobian for a synthetic 2000-bus power grid

Description:
ACTIVSg2000 is a 2000-bus power system dataset that is entirely synthetic,
built from public information and a statistical analysis of real power
systems.  Its geographic footprint is Texas, but it bears no relation to
any actual grid, except that generation and load profiles are similar,
based on public data. This matrix is the power flow Jacobian for the peak
planning operating point.

Matrix: ACTIVSg10K
Title: Power flow Jacobian for a synthetic 10,000-bus power grid
Description:

ACTIVSg10K is a 10,000-bus power system dataset that is entirely
synthetic, built from public information and a statistical analysis of
real power systems.  Its geographic footprint is the Western United
States, but it bears no relation to any actual grid, except that
generation and load profiles are similar, based on public data. This
matrix is the power flow Jacobian for the peak planning operating point.

Matrix: ACTIVSg70K
Title: Linearized or "dc" power flow susceptance matrix for a synthetic
70,000-bus power grid

Description:
ACTIVSg70K is a 70,000-bus power system dataset that is entirely
synthetic, built from public information and a statistical analysis of
real power systems.  Its geographic footprint is the Eastern United
States, but it bears no relation to any actual grid, except that
generation and load profiles are similar, based on public data. This
matrix is the linearized or "dc" power flow susceptance matrix.
