|text_description=GridCal is a research oriented power systems software.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Research oriented? How? Well, it is a fruit of research. It is designed to be modular. As a researcher I found that the available software (not even talking about commercial options) are hard to expand or adapt to achieve complex simulations. GridCal is designed to allow you to build and reuse modules, which eventually will boost your productivity and the possibilities that are at hand.&lt;br /&gt;
|Primary outputs=PF, OPF, PF time series, OPF time series, SC, stability, stochastic PF, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
|Support=Linux, Windows, OSX&lt;br /&gt;
|Framework=Python&lt;br /&gt;
