That's not really my strong side... But a quick search brought this paper to the light which might serve as a starting point: https://res.mdpi.com/d_attachment/energies/energies-11-01381/article_deploy/energies-11-01381.pdf https://res.mdpi.com/d_attachment/energies/energies-11-01381... For example they report on a project where they used photovoltaic panels to stabilize changing power consumption in a power grids with minimal changes in the existing structure - something that is hard with traditional power plants since they basically have to much momentum for quick switching action. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7007647 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7007647 Also, agent based simulations (building on the idea of self organized criticality) are a thing. With these setups you can test power grids on their reaction for certain failure types - something you don't want to test in real life. I assume these simulations would also be quite accurate since consumption and production should be well known, as well as the physical properties of transmission.
