PowerDynamics.jl: An Open-Source Framework Written in Julia for Dynamic Power Grid Modeling and Analysis.
The main idea of this package is to turn dynamic power grid models into a right-hand-side function of a DAE system, which can then be solved using OrdinaryDiffEq.jl.

The main features of PowerDynamics are:

ModelingToolkit.jl based Frontend: Component models such as machines, controllers, power lines, ... are all defined as symbolic, equation-based MTK models.
NetworkDynamics.jl based Backend: PD.jl generates Julia code for each of the MTK models as NetworkDynamics.jl compatible vertex- and edge models. NetworkDynamics is used to interconnect those bus and edge models.
Component-Based Initialisation: Annotate your dynamic models with simplified powerflow models. Solve the powerflow and initialize free dynamic states and parameters of the node and edge models to fit the powerflow result.
Symbolic Indexing and Observables: Use your typical SciML syntax like plot(sol, idxs=VIndex(2,:busbar₊u_mag)) to access arbitrary states, parameters, observables of your MTK models (in this case, the variable named busbar₊u_mag of vertex model 2).

... and there is much more! Please check out the Documentation.
