Suitable for utility companies, the ADE7753/8 energy-metering ICs measure reactive energy for more precise reading of energy usage. Both feature power line supervisory functions, zero-crossing ...

Reactive Technologies secured $1.43 million Australian dollars (about 959,000 USD) from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) for a trial project to provide real-time, accurate grid inertia ...

The traditional grid has been reliable because it is centralized. When a customer flips a switch, the lights turn on. Originally, the grid was designed with large generators accounting for much of the ...

In its latest monthly column for pv magazine, IEA-PVPS provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art practices, best practices, and recommendations for managing reactive power amidst the ...

It hasn’t been that long since humans figured out how to create power grids that integrated multiple generators and consumers. Ever since AC won the battle of the currents, grid operators have had to ...

Some applications require the monitoring of power applied to a system. Microchip Technology addressed this need with the MCP39F511A, a highly integrated, single-phase power-monitoring IC intended for ...

Power supplies in data centers that measure the input power in real time and report the measurement to the host are conducting what’s known as electrical metering (e-metering). An e-meter has become a ...
