Abstract: Industrial power plants are able to generate electricity with appropriate quality and power factor using Instrumentation. These plants use traditional methods to avoid the heavy compensation that may be imposed on them, and also use capacitive banks or newer solutions such as SVC and STATCOM, which are too expensive to improve power factor. They also use separate active filters to reduce current harmonics. This paper proposes that dynamic capacitors that are based on inverters used as a capacitive dynamic controller with an active harmonic filter make this system cost less than SVC and STATCOM.
