Winter brings a unique set of challenges for electric vehicle (EV) owners, and one of the most common concerns is how EV batteries perform in cold temperatures. While EV batteries are designed to withstand a variety of conditions, cold weather can still impact their efficiency and range. This article will explore why cold weather affects EV batteries, how owners can mitigate these effects, and how...
Addressing Power Quality Issues in Russian Electrical Networks The power quality in Russian electrical networks fails to meet established regulatory standards, causing significant challenges across various sectors of society. Economic losses are among the most severe consequences. As the digital economy evolves, power quality requirements intensify due to the increasing reliance on sen...
Power Quality Challenges: An Invisible Barrier to Economic Growth Electricity access has made significant strides across the globe, and more people than ever are connecting to the power grid. However, even in regions where access is available, many face a more insidious issue: poor power quality. This issue, which is often less visible than frequent power outages, presents a major challenge...
Analysis of Harmonic Source Localization Technology and Direction Determination Methods As a leader in power quality solutions, YT Electric has long been committed to research on harmonic mitigation in power systems. This article analyzes core technical principles of harmonic source localization through a representative case study. Case Background: Harmonic Mitigation Example A power...
The combination of a Static VAR Generator (SVG) and Thyristor-Switched Capacitor (TSC) creates a high-performance hybrid reactive power compensation system. This setup leverages the fast dynamic response of the SVG with the cost-effective bulk compensation capability of TSC. How SVG + TSC Works SVG (Static VAR Generator) Uses a voltage-source converter (VSC) with IGBT...
Source-Grid-Load-Storage (SGLS) is a novel coordinated operational model for energy and power systems. It aims to build a flexible, efficient, and clean modern power system by integrating energy production, transmission, consumption, and storage. This concept represents a key solution to challenges such as large-scale renewable energy integration and dynamic power supply-demand balance amid t...
From data centers in Frankfurt to EV charging stations in Southeast Asia, Active Harmonic Filters (AHFs) are rapidly becoming the gold standard for solving one of the most overlooked yet costly problems in industrial power systems—harmonics. Modern electrical loads such as variable frequency drives, inverters, and switching power supplies generate non-linear current waveforms, resulting in h...
