Reactive power June 2014 Sparq Confidential2 Voltage and current are not in-phase Reactive Power for the same voltage and current amplitude (constant Apparent Power), less active (real) power is allowed to be transferred. Most of the loads (such as motors) draw current not in phase with the voltage (large reactive power) Since reactive power generation does not require any source of energy, traditionally capacitor banks and recently smart converters even with no source of energy can produce the required reactive power locally to free up some real power transfer capacity on the transmission and distribution systems. Definition and Static Compensation

New Requirements for Reactive and Active Power Control July 2014Sparq Confidential3 Dynamic active power compensation proportional to the frequency deviation helps the grid frequency becomes stable because of the way all the generators are controlled. It can be shown that negative reactive power generation can locally cause a small grid voltage sag. Dynamic reactive power compensation depending on grid voltage deviation can stabilize the grid voltage. During the fault new standards require smart dynamic reactive power support from the smart inverters to help the grid voltage stabilize faster. This is called Fault Ride Through (FRT). Dynamic Compensations

Instantaneous Power control (Ultra-fast Reactive power control) New control block diagram which controls the instantaneous power directly instead of active and reactive power independently. This improves the dynamic response of the system and improves stability of the system When there are several microinverters in the grid. Instantaneous power feedback No current feedback Instantaneous power reference New control strucutre
