Mitigating Harmonics to Maintain Data Center Reliability Data center operations depend heavily on reliable electric power, as even minor disruptions in power quality can significantly affect performance and stability. Industry studies show that approximately 33% of all data center outages result from power quality issues. These problems cause costly downtime. They can also lead to data corruption,...
Guide to Selecting Active Harmonic Filters In the realm of modern electrical power systems, the significance of active harmonic filters (AHFs) cannot be overstated. They are the guardians of power quality, ensuring that electrical equipment operates smoothly by effectively counteracting harmonic distortions. When it comes to making a purchase decision for an AHF, a multitude of critical fac...
Poor power quality — characterized by fluctuations and/or persistently low or high voltages — has far-reaching consequences and should receive much more attention. Like lack of access, poor power quality holds back economic growth. But it is much harder to track and its prevalence is unknown because systems to measure it are not in place. We installed sensors across Nigeria to assess p...
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...
Mitigating Harmonics in Frequency Converters with AHF Frequency converters (VFDs) are indispensable components in modern industrial systems. These devices control the speed and torque of electric motors, enabling greater flexibility and efficiency in operations. However, the use of frequency converters often results in harmonic distortions, which can significantly impact the performance and...
