Inside the Admittance Matrix - BambooGrid Series Part 3

A power-flow result looks deceptively simple. What happens between the network diagram and those numbers is much more interesting — and on a two-bus network, it can be followed almost line by line.

How State Estimation Works: Reconstructing the Grid State from Noisy Measurements

How a power grid turns a pile of noisy, redundant meter readings into one clean, trustworthy picture of itself — watched live, on a real network.

The Electrical Foundations of Power Flow - BambooGrid Series Part 2

Using the same BambooGrid network from Part 1, this article unpacks the electrical foundations behind a power-flow calculation — phase angles, impedance, and how active, reactive, and apparent power relate

Modeling and Simulating Power Grids in the Browser — A Practical Guide to BambooGrid

BambooGrid is an open-source, browser-based tool for visually modeling and analyzing electrical power networks using drag-and-drop, eliminating the need for desktop software or local Python setups. This post walks through building a small distribution grid from scratch—adding buses, loads, solar generation, and transformers—then running power flow calculations and interpreting the results.
