Today, volt/VAr optimization is one of the key investment areas of the smart grid. It not only controls reactive power flow with drives losses on distribution feeders, but it also reduces peak demand ...

CURRENT Group has announced the deployment of its Volt/VAR Control solution with Xcel Energy as part of the SmartGridCity project in Boulder, Colorado. The Volt/VAR Control solution is part of the ...

Volt/Var optimisation in smart distribution systems encompasses methods to regulate voltage profiles and reactive power flows across modern electricity networks. The primary aims are to maintain ...

Using voltage data down to the consumer level is essential for grid optimisation and operational flexibility in the new era of intermittent generation and fast-changing user demand. Power grids were ...
