The core value of employing SVG (Static Var Generator) and other dynamic compensation devices for power quality control in electrical systems is reflected in three dimensions: enhanced technical performance, optimized economic benefits, and improved system adaptability. From an industry practice perspective, the millisecond-level dynamic response capability of SVG (≤5ms) can accurately suppress voltage fluctuations and flicker, maintaining bus voltage deviation within ±1%, thus meeting the GB/T 12325 standard requirements. Compared to traditional capacitor banks, the continuous variable compensation feature of SVG stabilizes the power factor above 0.99, with line losses in typical industrial scenarios reduced by over 12%, resulting in annual electricity savings exceeding one million yuan.
In terms of harmonic mitigation, the collaborative operation of SVG with Active Power Filters (APF) can reduce the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) from 28% to below 4%, effectively preventing increased failure rates of precision equipment due to overheating caused by harmonics. For the renewable energy sector, SVG's Low Voltage Ride Through (LVRT) capability enhances the grid stability of photovoltaic and wind power plants by more than 5 percentage points, while also providing unique advantages in damping subsynchronous oscillations, complying with grid connection guidelines such as NB/T 31075.
From a total lifecycle cost analysis, the maintenance cost of SVG over its 15-year lifespan is only 30% of that of traditional devices. Although the initial investment is 40-60% higher, the incremental costs can be recovered within 3-5 years through energy efficiency improvements.
Current technological advancements focus on the application of silicon carbide (SiC) devices, which enable switching frequencies to exceed 20 kHz and reduce losses by 40%. Coupled with digital twin technology, SVG achieves topological adaptive compensation. In sensitive load scenarios such as semiconductor manufacturing and medical equipment power supply, SVG has become a core device to ensure voltage sags do not exceed 10 ms. Its technical and economic advantages are particularly prominent in rail transit traction power supply systems, where it can simultaneously mitigate negative sequence currents and reduce transformer losses by 23%. Industry data indicates that by 2023, the penetration rate of SVG in the industrial power quality improvement market has reached 68%, and it is expected to form a specialized market exceeding 20 billion yuan by 2025.
