Electricity transmission network operators are being tasked with adding more renewable energy resources to the power grid. The use of static VAR compensators (SVCs) is growing as a means to control ...

Australian scientists have identified seven methods to prevent PV losses when overvoltage-induced inverter disconnections occur. The methods include battery storage, reactive power inverters, export ...

Fast control of reactive power by means of shunt-connected static devices is a proven technology. SVCs are still considered a competitive solution to meet the future needs of reactive power ...

Qgrid Technologies, a partnership from Arteche, will introduce a new dynamic reactive compensator at the IEEE PES T&D Expo, the 2 MVAr STATCOM. STATCOM is power Eeectronic voltage source converter ...

US researchers have proposed the use of solar inverters in utility-scale solar assets to replace expensive voltage compensators, in order to provide voltage support at night. They said reactive power ...

Engr. Adekunle Awoniyi, a seasoned power system engineer, brings a wealth of experience from his tenure at the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), where he worked on various projects to improve the ...
