Battery energy storage systems (BESSes) act as reserve energy that can complement the existing grid to serve several different purposes. Potential grid applications are listed in Figure 1 and categorized as either power or energy-intensive, i.e., requiring a large energy reserve or high power capability. They can also be classified according to the deployment time scale, which ranges from millisec...
Technological Progress and the Challenge of Harmonic Distortion in Modern Electrical Systems Technological progress is unstoppable. Every new innovation aims to make life easier and more efficient. From advanced production processes to cutting-edge consumer electronics, the modern world relies heavily on technology. However, the very electronics that make these advancements possible often introduc...
Access to electricity is expanding globally, but challenges persist. While more people are gaining connections to power grids, issues such as frequent outages and poor power quality remain widespread, particularly in developing regions. Poor power quality, often characterized by voltage fluctuations and inadequate electrical performance, affects millions of users. It hampers their ability to use e...
How to Measure Power Quality Efficient energy use is a key goal for organizations and institutions that generate, transmit, and distribute electricity. Improving efficiency requires better power quality, otherwise, it can harm electrical systems. Measuring power quality is essential to identify and fix these issues. Accurate measurements from correct points are critical. I. Introduction Mos...
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...
Introduction Power quality refers to the characteristics of electric power supplied to end users, particularly its ability to ensure the proper functioning of electrical devices. With the increasing use of sensitive equipment such as programmable logic controllers, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and computers in modern industries, the tolerance for power disturbances such as voltage dips, swell...
Power quality metering for industrial efficiency In today's competitive industrial landscape, ensuring an uninterrupted, stable, and efficient power supply is essential. Power quality issues such as voltage fluctuations, harmonic distortion, and poor power factor can lead to significant operational downtime, costly equipment repairs, and reduced energy efficiency. Power quality metering is a criti...
What are Reactive Power and Reactive Power compensation？ Reactive power is a key part of AC electrical systems—it’s the energy that flows back and forth between the power source and the load. Unlike active power, which does the actual work like powering lights or running machines, reactive power doesn’t directly get used up. But it plays a crucial role in keeping voltage levels s...
