Emerging technologies are rapidly reshaping the electrical characteristics of power systems. Inverter-based renewable generation, electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, artificial intelligence-driven computing and large-scale data centres are introducing new patterns of electricity production and consumption […]
Power quality has become a critical determinant of grid reliability and system efficiency as India’s power sector undergoes rapid change. Issues such as voltage fluctuations, harmonic distortion, poor power factor and electrical noise, long treated […]
Power quality (PQ) is increasingly becoming an important parameter in the Indian power sector, with the focus shifting from capacity addition to reliability, efficiency and consumer-centric performance. While the country has made significant progress in […]
A resilient power network is critical for meeting India’s increasing electricity demand and rising consumer expectations. As electricity consumption increases, ensuring reliable, high-quality and uninterrupted power supply is essential. This entails modernising the infrastructure to […]
Power quality is critical for the efficiency and reliability of electrical systems, enabling optimal performance, sustainability and infrastructure security. Voltage sags and surges, harmonic distortions, power factor imbalances and electrical noise are common problems that […]
Power quality issues are expected to become a key concern for utilities as the demand from new and emerging consumer categories such as electric vehicles (EVs) grows. The country has set aggressive targets for rolling […]
With the growing need for sustainable energy solutions to achieve net-zero emissions by 2070, rooftop solar is becoming an integral part of India’s energy landscape. The launch of the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana […]
The increased injection of renewables causes voltage fluctuations in the grid, causing harmonics, flicker phenomena, unbalanced loads and power oscillation, thus impacting power quality and power transfer capability. Therefore, reactive power management is crucial to […]
The power sector in India has undergone a sea change. The integration of regional grids into a single national grid in addition to simultaneously providing near-universal electricity access has helped the sector achieve surplus power. […]
The Electricity Act, 2003 highlights the basic need of consumers for continuous, reliable and quality supply by the distribution utilities. With the accelerated growth of renewable energy such as solar and wind; and the rise […]
With power supply shortages becoming a thing of the past, the government is now focusing on providing quality power to consumers. Considerable generation capacity addition and transmission and distribution (T&D) network expansion over the last […]
