GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset Overview GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset is a set of geographically grounded, electrically coherent power-system network derived entirely from publicly available data. It was developed to support AC optimal power flow (AC-OPF) analysis, enabling physics-based study of congestion, capacity, and demand sitting without restricted data. A detailed discussion of GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset, including how it was developed and evaluated, can be found in our paper at: https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.04289. Intended uses The GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset is intended to support a broad range of physics-based research questions on the U.S. transmission network, covering 48 states and multi-state interconnections with realistic geographic structure, including transmission expansion potential, targeted line upgrades, and placement of large loads. Out-of-scope uses GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset is not well suited for detailed operational or market-critical decision making, including real-time dispatch, contingency analysis, or regulatory planning that requires exact system parameters. There are few or no instances of measured electrical parameters, complete multi-circuit topology, detailed protection models, or operational control parameters in this dataset. As a result, GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset should not be used for safety-critical, financial, or regulatory decisions that depend on precise modeling of the real transmission grid. We do not recommend using GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset in commercial or real-world applications without further testing and development. It is being released for research purposes. We do not recommend using GridSFM US Power Grid Dataset in the context of high-risk decision making (e.g. in law enforcement, legal, finance, or healthcare).
