On power systems, capacitors do not store their energy very long—just one-half cycle. Each half cycle, a capacitor charges up and then discharges its stored energy back into the system. The net real power transfer is zero. Just when a motor with low power factor needs power from the system, the capacitor is there to provide it.
An addition of a switched capacitor in the substation was needed to correct the PF, but even so the local control (VVC) was not able to reduce the losses of the system. On the other hand, the optimal coordination provided by the VVO achieved the main goal of reducing losses and ensuring important constraints of the system operation.
Losses include resistive losses in the foil, dielectric losses, and losses in the internal discharge resistor. Capacitors must have an internal resistor that discharges a capacitor to 50 V or less within 5 min when the capacitor is charged to the peak of its rated voltage. This resistor is the major component of losses within a capacitor.
Typical radial system capacitor bank controls include those operated by time, local temperature, local voltage, local current, local var flow or a combination of those quantities. Some banks are operated by remote control with information on the var loading of the circuit.
Capacitors and reactive loads exchange this reactive power back and forth. This benefits the system because that reactive power (and extra current) does not have to be transmitted from the generators all the way through many transformers and many kilometers of lines. The capacitors can provide the reactive power locally.
