Reactive power dispatch refers to the systematic allocation and control of reactive power within electrical grids to maintain voltage stability, minimize transmission losses, and enhance overall ...

Dynamic reactive power management has emerged as a critical field in modern power systems, addressing the challenges of voltage instability and ensuring grid reliability amid an ever‐increasing ...

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) Order No. 904, Compensation for Reactive Power Within the Standard Power Factor Range, 189 FERC ¶ 61,034 (2024), eliminating most compensation for ...

Power generation facilities produce, and sometimes sell, reactive power, a byproduct of power generation (the primary products being capacity and energy). Reactive power compensation is predicated on ...

In a time where capacity revenues are pricing lower and many generation owners find that their facilities are not being dispatched for energy on a consistent basis, reliable revenue streams are ...

Understanding power factor (PF) is important because it gives us a clear understanding of the efficiency of an electrical system. Put simply, it’s the ratio of true power and apparent power, which ...

As coal, gas, and nuclear plants are retired, and wind and solar resources are added to the power grid, stability can become a problem. Understanding the solutions that are available to help manage ...

Suitable for utility companies, the ADE7753/8 energy-metering ICs measure reactive energy for more precise reading of energy usage. Both feature power line supervisory functions, zero-crossing ...

Over the past decades power grids have undergone a transformation towards smaller and more intermittent generators – primarily in the form of wind and solar generators – as well as smaller ...

Spanish grid operator REE's failure to calculate the correct mix of energy was one of the factors hindering the grid's ability to cope with a surge in voltage that led to the massive blackout across ...
