Kickstage has launched BambooGrid, an open-source web UI for power grid modeling. Built on pandapower, it allows users to interactively create and analyze power flow systems.

Key points

Launch of BambooGrid

Kickstage has introduced BambooGrid, a web-based editor designed to assist in power grid modeling and power flow analysis. This tool aims to facilitate learning in the electrical industry, particularly for grid operators and engineers with limited domain knowledge.

Functionality and Architecture

BambooGrid allows users to drag and drop components such as buses, lines, loads, generators, and transformers onto a workspace. Users can wire these elements, set parameters, and execute power flow calculations, with results displayed directly on the canvas. It utilizes a Python backend, primarily driven by the pandapower simulation library, and features a React-based frontend.

Accessibility and Licensing

The tool can be accessed online at bamboo.kickstage.com without the need for installation, enabling users to start with provided samples or create custom configurations. BambooGrid is fully MIT licensed, allowing users to modify and adapt the tool according to their needs.

Community Engagement

Kickstage encourages user feedback to enhance BambooGrid and improve the learning experience related to power systems. The developers, Ε ime and his co-founder, are available to answer questions about both the tool's implementation and broader power systems topics.
