The Smart Grid (SG) is a Cyber-Physical System (CPS) considered a critical infrastructure divided into cyber (software) and physical (hardware) counterparts that complement each other. It is responsible for timely power provision wrapped by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for handling bi-directional energy flows in electric power grids. Enacting control and performance over the massive infrastructure of the SG requires convenient analysis methods. Modelling and simulation (M&S) is a performance evaluation technique used to study virtually any system by testing designs and artificially creating 'what-if' scenarios for system reasoning and advanced analysis. M&S avoids stressing the actual physical infrastructure and systems in production by addressing the problem in a purely computational perspective. Present work compiles a non-exhaustive list of tools for M&S of interest when tackling SG capabilities. Our contribution is to delineate available options for modellers when considering power systems in combination with ICT. We also show the auxiliary tools and details of most relevant solutions pointing out major features and combinations over the years.

智能电网建模和仿真工具

智能电网 (SG) 是一种网络物理系统 (CPS)，被​​认为是一种关键基础设施，分为网络（软件）和物理（硬件）对应物，相互补充。它负责及时提供由信息和通信技术 (ICT) 包裹的电力，用于处理电网中的双向能量流动。对 SG 的庞大基础设施实施控制和性能需要方便的分析方法。建模和仿真 (M&S) 是一种性能评估技术，用于通过测试设计和人工创建系统推理和高级分析的“假设”场景来研究几乎任何系统。M&S 通过从纯计算的角度解决问题，避免强调生产中的实际物理基础设施和系统。当前的工作为处理 SG 能力时感兴趣的 M&S 编制了一份非详尽的工具列表。我们的贡献是在考虑结合 ICT 的电力系统时为建模者描绘可用的选项。我们还展示了大多数相关解决方案的辅助工具和详细信息，指出了多年来的主要功能和组合。
