This paper describes a suggested tariff or payment for the local supply of reactive power from distributed energy resources. The authors consider four sample customers and estimate the cost of supply of reactive power for each customer. The study utilizes data from a hypothetical circuit to analyze the power system savings linked to the local supply of reactive power. The findings reveal that the economic feasibility of supplying reactive power for local voltage regulation can be achieved when new inverters are installed, specifically designed to maintain a power factor of 0.8, capable of local voltage regulation as per utility's schedule. Inverters are currently paired with photovoltaic systems, fuel cells, microturbines, and adjustable-speed motor drives, illustrating the growing context of renewable energy solutions in reactive power supply. This tariff proposal seeks to advance the reliability and efficiency of the distribution system by integrating dynamic sources of reactive power.
