The 2022 release particularly excels in of large-scale systems. It supports both root-mean-square (RMS) and electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulations, allowing users to analyze phenomena ranging from electromechanical oscillations (e.g., inter-area modes) to fast transients associated with power electronics. The ability to switch between RMS and EMT models of the same component—or even use hybrid simulation—is a standout feature for studying grids with high penetration of renewables.

Small consultancies may initially struggle with the UI change, but the productivity boost from the ribbon interface and automation tools will quickly offset the learning curve.

The 2022 update introduced a complete overhaul of the graphics engine.

In , there is no officially branded "Draft" feature mentioned in the core release highlights or standard analysis modules.

: This tool was significantly revised to support both distance and overcurrent protection, automating the complex task of ensuring that protective devices trip in the correct sequence. 4. Visualization and Data Management
