AUTOMATED REACTIVE POWER CONTROL SYSTEMS AND FREQUENCY-CONTROLLED ELECTRIC DRIVES AS TOOLS FOR ENHANCING ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article discusses modern technical solutions aimed at improving the energy efficiency of power supply systems through the introduction of automated reactive power control systems and frequency-controlled electric drives. The reasons for inefficient consumption of electricity in the traditional control of electric drives and the lack of reactive power compensation are analyzed. The principles of operation of frequency converters and automatic compensating devices, their architecture and algorithms of functioning are described. Examples of practical application of these technologies in public utilities and industry are given, their economic and technical efficiency is shown. The presented data confirm that the integrated use of frequency control and adaptive reactive power compensation can significantly reduce energy losses, increase equipment life and reduce operating costs.
