Volt/VAR Optimization (VVO)
Volt/VAR Optimization (VVO) & Conservative Voltage Reduction (CVR)
Minimize Reactive Power Losses and Conservative Voltage Reduction
The primary purpose of Conservative Voltage Reduction (CVR) is to maintain acceptable voltage (e.g. 120 V /- 5%) at the service entrance of all customers served by the feeder under all possible operating conditions.
Volt VAR Optimization & Control is an advanced function that determines the best set of control actions for all voltage regulating devices and VAR control devices to achieve a one or more specified operating objectives without violating any of the fundamental operating constraints (high/low voltage limits, load limits, etc.).
Key Features
- Maximize voltage & flow security indices
- Minimal electrical losses & electrical demand via CVR
- Optimizes power factor for the entire substation or individual feeders
- Based on time-of-day, static load profile, or averaged load
- Control generator and inverter reactive power setpoints
- Control capacitor bank or Static Var Compensator (SVC) setpoints
- Adjust switched capacitors within the specified limits
- Control voltage regulators (transformer tap positions) within the specified limits
- On Peak & Off Peak substation optimization settings for large customer
- Automatic Power Factor (PF) adjustment under light loads such as holidays and weekends
- Feeder voltage protection via voltage limit constraints
