Iran Energy Association (IEA) Journal of Energy Management and Technology 2588-3372 8 3 2024 09 01 Power System Analysis Using The ETAP Software: A Comprehensive Review 250 294 203735 10.22109/jemt.2024.467452.1518 EN Hamdi Abdi Electrical Engineering Department, Engineering Faculty, Razi University, Kermanshah, Iran Journal Article 2024 07 11 With the increase in population and the amount of energy required, power systems have become more complex and extensive over time. Because of the development of new equipment and modern operation strategies, these system complexities are also continuously increasing. One of the most powerful tools to model, and analyze modern, and complex power systems is Electrical transient analyzer program known as ETAP software that was developed by ETAP, United States. Since the introduction of this software, its different versions were provided, and much research were conducted in power system field by using it. This research for the first time attempts to provide a comprehensive survey on different applications of this simulation tool. For this purpose, after addressing the research conducted using the ETAP software in power system, the classification of its different versions is presented. Then a general survey on addressed references in terms of publication year, publishers, different categories is mentioned. Detailing power system analysis in terms of different studies, and addressing the relevant works of each category is then presented. Furthermore, different case studies used in power system analysis in three categories of practical cases in different countries, standard grids, mainly IEEE systems, and some sample and typical grids are segmented. Ultimately, the work opens new views on the future directions. https://www.jemat.org/article_203735_d3a9e46062c94774eb097a52f835958a.pdf
