A time driven, computer simulation based electric power system training software package designed to train power system operators is used with an existing set of electric power system modeling algorithms, such as sold under the Powerworld™ brand. The software package includes: a file that provides all the data to be plugged into the electric power system modeling algorithms, a graphics file that shows a picture of the power system and serves as a graphical man-machine interface with the modeling algorithms, a time dimension file that initiates and ends the simulation session and changes specific data in the data file as time progresses and stores a history of selected parameters over the course of the session; and a spreadsheet file, such as an Excel® spreadsheet, that performs calculations on data and presents data in graphical form based on output from the modeling algorithms at the end of the simulation.

What is claimed is: 1. A Process for Electric Power System Training using an existing set of electric power system modeling algorithms comprising:Providing the electric power system operational data to be plugged into the electric power system modeling algorithms;Providing a graphical man-machine interface with the electric power system modeling algorithms;Initiating and ending a simulation session over a given time set for the session wherein the trainee objective is for an operator to minimize simulated total system costs for each session;continually changing specific parameters in the stimulation scenario as time progresses within the simulation session in response to preprogrammed commaned and operater interaction;storing a history of selected parameters over the course of the simulation session;identifying a satisfying target performance range for each selected parameter at each point in time throughout the session defining a baseline performance target data for each selected parameter;presenting session data in graphical form based on output from the electric power system modeling algorithms at the end of the simulation time; andproviding numberical feedback to the operator by calculating a numberical grading of the session based upon a comparison of the actual simulation performance data for each selected parameter and the baseline performance target data at each point in time throughout the session.
