Reactive Power Compensation in Photovoltaic Power Generation: A Case Study 1. Introduction As the world moves towards a greener future, China has set ambitious "Dual Carbon" targets, which have propelled the photovoltaic (PV) power generation industry into an era of unprecedented growth and potential. The State Council's plan for achieving peak carbon emissions by 2030 envisions an installe...
In an era where industries face mounting pressure to balance operational efficiency with regulatory compliance, Active Harmonic Filters (AHFs) have emerged as a critical technology at the intersection of business strategy and energy policy. As nonlinear loads like data centers, electric vehicle chargers, and industrial automation proliferate, AHFs are no longer just an engineering soluti...
Photovoltaic Power Quality: Prevent Penalties via Power Factor Management Introduction More factories and businesses now use solar power systems. But these systems can cause power quality problems. A big issue is low power factor. Power companies charge extra fees for low power factor. This article explains why solar systems hurt power factor and how YT Electric’s SVGs solve this problem. &n...
Think of our power grid like a giant Jenga tower. As we add more wind turbines and solar panels (the green blocks), the tower becomes wobblier. This happens because sunshine and wind change like mood swings. One minute your solar panels are pumping out power during a cloudless noon, the next they’re napping when a storm rolls in. This makes the entire electricity system feel like a weak Wi-F...
Analysis of 3 Different Power Factor Correction Solutions: Capacitors, SVG, and AHF In today’s industrial and commercial environments, ensuring power quality is more than just good practice—it’s a necessity. Poor power quality can lead to equipment malfunctions, increased utility costs, and downtime. One major aspect of power quality is the power factor—a measure of ho...
1. Current Transformer (CT) A Current Transformer is an instrument transformer used to measure alternating current (AC) by stepping down high currents to a lower, measurable value. Key Functions: Current Measurement: Steps down high primary current (e.g., 1000A) to a standardized secondary current (e.g., 5A or 1A) for meters and relays. Isolation: Provides galvanic isolation be...
