Remove reactive-power penalties
Capacitor banks: the definitive solution to reactive-power surcharges.
What is reactive power?
Reactive power is what some equipment (motors, transformers, etc.) needs to create magnetic fields. It isn’t turned into useful work, but it flows through the grid. Distributors penalise excess reactive power on your bill.
Capacitor banks offset that reactive power by generating it locally, preventing the distributor from penalising you.
Benefits
- Removal of the reactive-power surcharge (up to 30% saving)
- Improved power factor of the installation
- Longer service life of electrical equipment
- Typical payback: 6-18 months
