pyPowerGEM
Overview
pyPowerGEM is the PowerGEM Python Package designed to work directly with TARA. Python is a batteries included programming language with extensive functionality. pyPowerGEM package uses a TARA binary to allow direct access to case data for reading data directly from TARA's memory. This allows fast exploration of power systems cases and allows integration of python into an engineer's workflow. Python comes with many standard libraries that can be used for reporting, reading files, automating analysis, calling processes, and more.
