Results for tag: "Synchronous Condenser"

A synchronous condenser is an electrical device used in the electricity industry to provide reactive power support and improve power factor. It is a type of synchronous motor that is used to absorb or generate reactive power, and is typically used in power systems with large amounts of inductive load. Synchronous condensers are used to improve the power factor of a system, reduce transmission losses, and improve the stability of the system. Synchronous condensers are typically used in power systems with large amounts of inductive load, such as those found in industrial and commercial applications. They are also used in power systems with high levels of harmonic distortion, such as those found in renewable energy systems. The synchronous condenser market is driven by the increasing demand for reliable and efficient power systems, as well as the need for improved power quality. The market is also driven by the increasing demand for renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, which require reactive power support. Some of the major companies in the synchronous condenser market include ABB, Siemens, General Electric, Mitsubishi Electric, and Toshiba. Show Less Read more
