MaSDE: Real-Time Dynamic Estimation for a Resilient Power Grid

Master State Distributed Estimator (MaSDE)
Technology No. CW-22-18
The MSE technology is a distributed state estimation software for power utilities that improve the accuracy and security of the power grid by providing real-time dynamic system estimation instead of the static snapshot method currently used. It allows utilities to verify power grid readings and identify false data on the communication network by distributing the algorithm to devices already installed at various locations on the power grid. This results in faster computation times and an improved ability to take preventative action to reduce cascading failures and downtime. It is used by utility grid operators and aims to reduce the attack vectors on the power grid. The MSE uses a state-of-the-art algorithm designed to run on existing infrastructure components and is executed in two stages at substations and the whole system. The team developing the software is seeking additional people, institutions, and companies with skills and expertise in power grid technology and implementation.
