Open Substation is an informal, community-driven initiative to provide a full open-source software stack for Digital Substations. It is currently based on a handful of initial projects including SEAPATH (hypervisor) and OpenEnergyTools (IEC61850 implementation) with the aim to grow over time via new individual contributors and organisations.
