The ElectroMagnetic Transient Program was originally developed by Professor Hermann W. Dommel in Germany, who brought the program to Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) in the late 1960's. Since then, EMTP has been continuously developed through international contributions.
In order to rationalize the development of the program, the EMTP Development Coordination Group (DCG) was founded in 1982. Original members of the DCG included BPA, the US Bureau of reclamation, Western Area Power Administration (WAPA), the Canadian Electrical Association (CEA), Ontario Hydro and Hydro-Quebec. At present, North American members of DCG include WAPA, the US Bureau of Reclamation, American Electric Power service Corporation, Electrical Power Research Institute (EPRI), Canadian Electrical Association (CEA), Hydro One Networks and Hydro-Quebec. DCG members outside North America include CRIEPI (Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry) from Japan and Electricité de France.
The first version of the DCG EMTP was released in 1987 and version 2.0 was completed in mid 1989. The last version of EMTP, known as EMTP96 is believed to be, until the release of EMTP-RV, the most technically advanced transients analysis software for the simulation of various phenomena in areas such as power quality, lightning protection, insulation coordination of air or gas-insulated substations, switching surges, temporary overvoltages, motor starting and power electronics based transmission systems/compensators and associated controls.
In 2003, the DCG released a new restructured version, EMTP-RV, developed under the technical leadership of Hydro-Québec. It features new and improved functionalities, as well as state-of-the-art analysis tools. Re-engineered to provide greater simulation performance and design convenience, EMTP-RV is not an upgrade. It is a complete replacement of EMTP96.
CEATI International Inc.
CEATI International Inc. brings electrical utility industry professionals together, through focused interest groups and collaborative projects, to identify and address technical issues that are critical to their organizations. Participants can undertake projects that respond to their strategic goals at a fraction of the cost of doing so independently. The need for international breadth and inter-industry applicability in technology development is addressed through a practical, dynamic and cost effective program.
As of December 1, 2006, all marketing and support for EMTP are being adopted by CEATI. CEATI brings to the table over 30 years of experience in technology development in power systems. In addition, the existing EMTP-RV technical team, with their knowledge and years of experience, remain devoted to product development and support. Our goal with these changes is to ensure a seamless transition, the best possible support for our customers and ongoing product development.
Starting immediately, all administrative and sales inquiries relating to EMTP-RV can be made directly to CEATI.
Product technical support contact information will remain the same.
