Power quality and energy efficiency are key areas at printing facilities. Through the implementation of power quality improvement solutions, it is possible to gain substation...
The integration of battery energy storages to microgrid helps to achieve the full potential of photovoltaic (PV) systems and ensures microgrid power quality while saving...
The electricity market operators plan their consumption and production in advance but in reality, there is a deviation within each hour. Balancing market ensures that...
Active harmonic filters can effectively cancel harmonic distortions from the network. This blog post will explain the key criteria that should be kept in mind...
Figure 1: Voltage drop caused by transmission of active and reactive current through network impedances when reactive power is not compensated. It can be calculated...
Electricity transmission and distribution systems are designed to carry a certain amount of current without overloading. Too much current causes excessive resistive losses in electric...
Power quality is commonly defined as the power grid’s ability to supply a clean and stable power flow as a constantly available power supply. The...
Inductive elements, such as transformers and magnetizing coils in AC motors, store energy into their magnetic field. The direction of the magnetic field (is such...
Power is defined as a rate of flow of energy past a given point. In electrical circuits, power is also defined as the product of...
As the harmonic currents generated by the users’ equipment flow back towards the power source, they cause additional voltage distortion due to impedance associated with...
The load current of a purely resistive load is sinusoidal and in phase with the voltage. When the load also contains reactance, a phase-shift between...
