Smart Grids Solutions for a Better Integration of RES to Distribution Networks

Smart electricity distribution network; smart grid distribution

Electricity distribution network using innovative technologies in network equipment, information systems and telecommunications to promote the circulation of useful information to customers and enable efficient management of the electricity network up to real time in a context of energy transition.

Constructive capacity in reactive power; Capacité constructive en puissance réactive

The reactive power of an electrical system is the imaginary part of its apparent complex power, noted Q and expressed in reactive volt-amperes (var). Reactive energy is used in inductive systems such as networks. Unlike active energy, it doesn't provide any work (or mechanical energy) useful for the operation of electrical appliances, but it does create a magnetic field useful...
