  2. Synchronous condenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_condenser

    Synchronous condenser installation at Templestowe substation, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Built by ASEA in 1966, the unit is hydrogen-cooled and capable of three-phase power at 125 MVA . In electrical engineering , a synchronous condenser (sometimes called a syncon , synchronous capacitor or synchronous compensator ) is a DC-excited ...

  3. Electric power system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_system

    A synchronous condenser installation at Templestowe substation, Melbourne, Victoria. The majority of the load in a typical AC power system is inductive; the current lags behind the voltage. Since the voltage and current are out-of-phase, this leads to the emergence of an "imaginary" form of power known as reactive power. Reactive power does no ...

  4. Static synchronous compensator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_synchronous_compensator

    In Electrical Engineering , a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is a shunt-connected, reactive compensation device used on transmission networks. It uses power electronics to form a voltage-source converter that can act as either a source or sink of reactive AC power to an electricity network. It is a member of the FACTS family of devices.

  5. Burrard Generating Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burrard_Generating_Station

    After the gas turbines were decommissioned, four of the six generator units had their drive shafts cut and were converted to synchronous condenser operation, providing reactive power to the transmission system.

  6. Kiamal Solar Farm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiamal_solar_farm

    Kiamal Solar Farm is a photovoltaic power station under construction north of Ouyen in western Victoria, Australia.Stage 1 is expected to be completed by the end of 2019. It is owned by Total Eren, a renewable energy subsidiary of TotalEnergies [1] When completed, stage 1 at 256MW will be Victoria's largest solar farm.

    The second of five storms that will slam the eastern half of the United States with snow and ice over a two week period is on the way – and this one has more snow than the first.

  9. HVDC converter station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter_station

    When line commutated converters are used, the converter station will require between 40% and 60% of its power rating as reactive power. This can be provided by banks of switched capacitors or by synchronous condensers, or if a suitable power generating station is located close to the static inverter plant, the generators in the power station ...
