Volt/VAR Control

Volt/VAR Control is a process that manages the voltage levels and reactive power in the electricity grid to ensure reliable, efficient, and stable power delivery. It automatically adjusts equipment like regulators and capacitor banks to maintain voltage within safe limits, reducing energy losses and preventing equipment damage. By balancing voltage and reactive power, Volt/VAR Control enhances overall grid performance, improves power quality, and helps accommodate changes in energy demand or distributed energy resources like solar panels. This system operates continuously behind the scenes, ensuring consistent and efficient electricity supply to homes and businesses.
