REACTIVE POWER COMPENSATION TO GENERATE

In this paper, we explore the critical issue of reactive power compensation in AC circuits, wherein energy is temporarily stored in inductive and capacitive elements, leading to a reversal of energy flow between the source and the load. The primary objective of our study is to examine methods for generating a new energy source using fly ash waste heat in boiler plants to enhance power quality. We employ a methodology that focuses on reducing reactive power requirements through innovative energy generation techniques. Our findings indicate that inductors and capacitors play dual roles in reactive power dynamics, with inductors absorbing and capacitors generating reactive power. The proposed system leverages energy from thermal waste to provide reactive power compensation, thus minimizing transmission losses and improving overall system efficiency. This form of energy utilization contributes to sustainable practices and aligns with green energy initiatives by transforming waste into usable power. By addressing the challenges of reactive power compensation, our research presents viable solutions for enhancing the performance of electrical power systems. The implications of this study are significant for both industry practitioners and researchers in the field of electrical engineering.
