Wind Farm Reactive Compensation

Grid Code compliance for distribution and transmission connection is an important consideration in wind farm construction and voltage/reactive power control is a necessary element in achieving such compliance.

The compensation of a network’s reactive power requirements will reduce unnecessary stress on the host utility grid and aid with grid integration/power exporting agreements by assisting with voltage regulation and in some cases enabling fault ride through.

Enspec Power specialise in reactive power compensation and manufacture the World-renowned VArComp® range of reactive compensators at all voltage levels.

We can provide turnkey solutions to all of your reactive power requirements. We will work closely with you from initial feasibility studies and load surveys through to system modelling, design, manufacture and installation.

Enspec also provide a specialist consultancy service to design and manufacture package dynamic voltage control systems: A typical project including SVC or STATCOM technology solutions combined with VArComp® reactive compensation.

Since 1998 the VArComp® reactive compensator has been successfully installed in many demanding applications Worldwide. The bespoke designs include capacitor banks and reactors to any MVAr output at all voltages for indoor or outdoor use (fully enclosed up to 36kV)

VArComp® reactive compensators can provide the necessary power factor correction and harmonic filtration requirements for your wind farm and help you to achieve Grid Code compliance.
