SVC PLUS FS® (E-STATCOM)

As renewable energy sources increasingly replace conventional synchronous power generation, grid frequency becomes more sensitive due to the reduced presence of rotating machines. This shift presents grid operators with the challenge of providing sufficient system inertia, traditionally supplied by synchronous generators with high rotating masses, to maintain grid stability.

Siemens Energy SVC PLUS FS® (frequency stabilizer) addresses this challenge by emulating system inertia, injecting high active power into the grid when necessary. Additionally, it offers robust voltage support through reactive power compensation, ensuring enhanced grid stability and resilience in the face of fluctuating energy inputs with state of the art grid forming algorithm.

Software emulated gird forming algorithm enables instantaneous reaction to system disturbances and provides future adaptability. High damping capability enables the integration of inverter based resources, such as wind turbines or solar generation, to increase the resilience of the grid.

In today's challenging energy landscape, grid operators require versatile resources that empower them to not only react but also act proactively. Our SVC PLUS FS® offers a reliable, economical, and space-saving solution, delivering numerous benefits in response time, control accuracy, and economic impact.
