Strategic Partnership for a Smarter Tomorrow
We are proud to partner AMSC and deliver Utility Voltage Solutions to our customers.
The world depends on reliable energy. As utilities face complex challenges between maintaining reliable power to their customers and new types of distributed generation, we are committed to developing technologies that enable utilities to service the homes and businesses that rely on them.
Our Utility Voltage Solutions consist of compact, efficient, and scalable FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) designed to address the unique challenges of today’s Transmission & Distribution networks. These utility-scale power electronics enhance power flow, reduce transmission loss, and minimize environmental impacts in a cost-effective manner.
Distributed Energy Resources (DER)
Over the last several years, there has been a rapid rise in Distributed Energy Resources (DER), in particular distributed generation from PV in forms of residential rooftop, small utility scale and commercial solar installations. Because renewable energy is dynamic and intermittently variable in nature, distribution grids must now enhance their network’s capabilities to accommodate this new resource, while maintaining efficiency and superior power quality for customers.
As penetration of DER increases, the problems caused by DER are also increasing, and are in some cases causing utilities to limit the amount of DER that can be installed on their distribution grids.
Our D-VAR VVO® are distribution class shunt compensation systems that provide utilities & project developers with a purpose-built tool to address applications that demand fast and precise volt/VAR compensation, such as those driven by increased DER penetration.
These problems include:
Excessive voltage deviation due to rapidly varying wind speed or cloud cover
Inability to regulate voltage due to rapidly changing generation levels and reverse power flow
Increased maintenance on traditional voltage management systems such as voltage regulators, capacitor banks, and transformer load tap changers due to rapid changes and generation and voltage
D-VAR VVO®
The D-VAR VVO® is a distribution class shunt compensation system that provides utilities & project developers with a purpose-built tool to address applications that demand fast and precise volt/VAR compensation, such as those driven by increased DER penetration.
D-VAR VVO builds upon over 20 years of experience in manufacturing and deployment of D-VAR® dynamic reactive power solutions in utility networks. Featuring continuous control of reactive current, these power electronic compensators can be used to solve dynamic response limitations and costly mechanical wear issues associated with conventional switched cap banks and tap changing regulators.
Applications Include:
- Enhancing feeder voltage regulation performance
- Low-Cost upgrade for increasing DG hosting capacity and EV fast charging capacity
- Quickly solve flicker and power quality problems
- Interconnect solar/DG plants in existing feeders
- Eliminate conservation voltage reduction (CVR) performance bottlenecks
Performance Features:
- Sub cycle response and continuous control of current
- Extremely low power losses
- Meets stringent integrity standards for overhead distribution equipment
D-VAR® Systems
The D-VAR VVO® is a distribution class shunt compensation system that provides utilities & project developers with a purpose-built tool to address applications that demand fast and precise volt/VAR compensation, such as those driven by increased DER penetration.
D-VAR VVO builds upon AMSC’s over 20 years of experience in manufacturing and deployment of D-VAR® dynamic reactive power solutions in utility networks. Featuring continuous control of reactive current, these power electronic compensators can be used to solve dynamic response limitations and costly mechanical wear issues associated with conventional switched cap banks and tap changing regulators.
The system provides a powerful and cost effective source of dynamic VARs for a wide range of operational needs. They can correct voltage instability problems on transmission networks; provide dynamic steady-state voltage and power factor control and regulation on transmission and distribution networks; protect industrial facilities requiring premium power quality; and support a stable point of interconnection for distributed generation facilities and large-scale wind farms.
