Power Quality Solutions: The Role of AHF and SVG Modern power systems face increasing power quality issues such as harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations, and reactive power imbalance. These problems can damage equipment and reduce system efficiency. Traditional solutions like capacitor banks and passive filters have limitations in speed, accuracy, and harmonic adaptability. ...
Power Quality: Why It Matters and How YT Electric Provides Solutions What Is Power Quality, and Why Should We Care? In 2001, a Silicon Valley manufacturing company lost over $3 million in a single day due to a power outage that halted production.¹ Today, nearly 20% of the world’s electricity is wasted due to inefficiencies in power transmission and distributio...
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...
Can Active Power Filters (APF) and Static Var Generators (SVG) Provide Significant Solutions for the Rapidly Growing EV Charging Pile/Station Market? As global EV ownership surges, power quality issues in charging infrastructure have become increasingly prominent. As nonlinear loads, EV chargers generate harmonic pollution and reactive power fluctuations during operation, leading to grid vo...
Reactive power charges and power factor assessments are common in electricity billing, especially for industrial and commercial consumers. Here's a detailed explanation: 1. Reactive Power Charge Reactive power (measured in kVARh) is the power consumed by inductive or capacitive loads (e.g., motors, transformers, fluorescent lights) that do not perform actual work but are necessary for maintai...
Minimizing Harmonic Distortion in Microinverter Systems ACTIVE POWER FILTER SOLUTIONS Microinverters—each mounted under a single photovoltaic (PV) module—offer significant advantages for residential solar installations. However, like all inverter-based systems, they introduce harmonic distortion due to high-frequency switching. This article explores the origins, impacts, ...
