Grid Models

Synthetic Marine Grid Model

This directory contains the base synthetic marine microgrid model without any Marine Hydrokinetic (MHK) devices integrated. Use this as a starting point for your own integration studies.

Overview

The synthetic grid represents a typical marine microgrid environment suitable for testing and studying MHK device integration. The model is designed to be realistic while remaining manageable for research and educational purposes.
