Software Licensing Opportunity: GLASS Software for Real-Time Optimization of Power Transmission Capacity

GLASS Software for Real-Time Optimization of Power Transmission Capacity Dynamic line rating software that enables utilities to safely increase transmission capacity without costly hardware expansion. Technology Summary The General Line Ampacity State Solver (GLASS), developed by Idaho National Laboratory (INL), is a high-performance software platform designed to calculate the real-time current-carrying capacity of overhead power transmission lines. By integrating weather data, line current data, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling, GLASS provides utilities with accurate, actionable insight into the thermal state of their transmission network. Unlike hardware-heavy solutions requiring dense networks of weather stations or specialized sensors, GLASS leverages a minimal number of data inputs and extrapolates across unmonitored spans using CFD-enhanced mapping. The system outputs results in a simple, interoperable format compatible with virtually any utility enterprise system…
