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...
Advantages of YT Electric SVC Over Capacitor Banks In industrial and commercial power systems, maintaining a balanced power factor is critical for efficient operation, reduced energy costs, and overall system stability. Reactive power compensation is a key technique used to improve power factor and stabilize the voltage profile of the system. Traditionally, capacitor banks have been w...
Effects of Power Quality Issues on Industry Power quality problems can affect how industries operate in both technical and financial ways. Improving power quality can help reduce these problems and make equipment work better and more efficiently. Using tools like active harmonic filters and static var generators can improve power quality. This helps reduce downtime and extends equipment life. This...
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...
Let me give you an insightful introduction to the YT Electric production lines for Active Harmonic Filters (AHF) and Static Var Generators (SVG) which offers a comprehensive view of the entire manufacturing process from various angles. Active Harmonic Filter (AHF): The AHF operates based on a voltage-source inverter and utilizes an external current transfo...
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...
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. ...
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...
