Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSS®E—often written as PSS/E) is a software tool used by power system engineers to simulate electrical power transmission networks in steady-state conditions as well as over timescales of a few seconds to tens of seconds.

Since its introduction in 1976, it has evolved from a simple command-line interface, to an integrated, interactive program for simulating, analyzing, and optimizing power system performance, and it can provide probabilistic and dynamic modeling features.

Power System Simulator Siemens Network Calculator (PSS®SINCAL Platform, containing PSS®SINCAL and PSS®NETOMAC) is a software tool used by power system engineers to simulate electrical power networks in several steady-state methods with massive calculation power, extensive protection analysis and dynamics/transients modules for a wide frequency range. Several decades of intensive experience in power system consulting form the product development of today's PSS®SINCAL Platform and it's predecessor products in the last century.

Platform EAP - Software suite built on three complementary power system tools : GAP (Energy Generation Expansion Planning) / NAP (Network Analysis and Planning) and DAP (Demand Analysis and Load Forecasting). The suite, initially known as SEPLAN and created by the former company Systems Europe in the 80's, is owned by Innovation Energie Developpement (IED) since 2016. Specialized tools dedicated for Generation and Transmission master planning which are including a scenario manager to easily compare various results
