Settlement of reactive power compensation in the light of white certificates

Abstract

Abstract. The article discusses the problem of the determination of savings on active energy as a result of a reactive power compensation. Statutory guidance on the required energy audit to obtain white certificates in the European Union was followed. The analysis was made on the basis of the Polish Law. The paper presents a detailed analytical method and an estimation method taking into account the impact on the line, the transformer and the generator. According to the relevant guidelines in the European Union, the reduction of CO 2 emissions by calculating the saving of active power should be determined.The detailed method and an estimation method proposed for the determination of savings on active energy as a result of the reactive power compensation carried out possess some errors and inconvenience. The detailed method requires knowledge of the network topology and a determination of reactive power Q at each point of the network. The estimation method of analysis is easy in execution, especially if the consumer of energy is the main or the most significant purchaser of electricity in the network. Unfortunately, this latter method can be used only for activities that do not require high computational accuracy. The results obtained by this method are approximate values that can be used for the calculation of economic indicators. The estimation method is suitable for determining the number of white certificates when a power audit concerns a recipient of electricity, the structure of which is a large number of divisions scattered at many different locations in the power system.

Examination of Multivalent Diagnoses Developed by a Diagnostic Program with an Artificial Neural Network for Devices in the Electric Hybrid Power Supply System “House on Water”

“…As part of the configuration, the following are defined: the type of state logic and the range of their intervals; options for visual presentation in the state table; and RBF network parameters. The object states accepted for multi-valued logic were defined in Polish standards concerning the reliability and quality of service [6,[33][34][35][36][37][38][39] (Figures 8 and 9). Therefore, the classification stage in the diagnosis process determines a specific state for each basic element of the technical object examined.…”

“…At present, electric power systems using renewable energy (wind, solar etc.) are developing particularly intensively; this can be seen as regards the subject of publications [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38]. A novelty in this article in the aspect of electric power supply systems is a presentation of the method of building and developing diagnostic knowledge bases for electric hybrid power supply systems for the HoW.…”

Modelling the Interaction between Air Pollutant Emissions and Their Key Sources in Poland

“…In the research [28], population growth was found to be the largest driver of energy consumption and air pollutant emissions from 1997-2010. Investments that reduce the production of electricity, which reduces the negative impact on the environment is one of activities [29]. Air emission pollutant prediction has attracted special legislative and scientific attention due to the harmful effects on human health.…”

Decomposition of the Voltages in a Three-Phase Asymmetrical Circuit with a Non-Sinusoidal Voltage Source

“…In addition to activities performed in the production and receiving area, the distribution area is also an important element. An important factor here is to take care of the appropriate reduction in the current value flowing in the power system [1]. The key tools for understanding the phenomena that cause increased current flow in an electrical circuit are mathematical methods of describing the flow of energy.…”
