GRIDAPPS-D

GridAPPS-D™ is a Department of Energy-sponsored open-source software platform being developed for data integration and application development. It enables industry to more easily develop and test software applications for distribution system planning, management, control, and operations... GridAPPS-D™ is not a software package, and it is not offered for sale. Nor is it intended to replace commercially available advanced distribution management systems. Rather, it is a freely available, standardized architecture and implementation approach. When the platform is completed, application innovators and vendors will be able to use it when developing their own advanced tools for distribution management to reduce cost and complexity, while accelerating time to market.
