En este artículo se estudia la posibilidad de compensar potencia eléctrica reactiva (kVAr) en sistemas fotovoltaicos para reducir o anular los recargos causados por bajo factor de potencia, ya que representan un costo adicional en la factura eléctrica. Para compensar la potencia eléctrica reactiva que se consume en los sistemas eléctricos es necesario el uso de elementos que produzcan este tipo de potencia reactiva, por lo que en este estudio se propone un método que compensa la potencia eléctrica reactiva demandada de la red junto al sistema fotovoltaico instalado. El método seleccionado se eligió con base en estudios entre distintas tecnologías en el ámbito de compensación de potencia eléctrica reactiva como inversores, bancos de capacitores, entre otros. Además, se utilizó un analizador de redes eléctricas para registrar el comportamiento de la carga conectada y así evaluar la efectividad de este método al evaluar las tendencias del consumo de potencia eléctrica reactiva antes y un después de implementar el método seleccionado. El método propuesto es aplicado en una instalación real y su efectividad se respalda con ahorros económicos al mejorar el factor de potencia y con ahorros ambientales al lograr una reducción de emisiones de dióxido de carbono.
This article studies the possibility of compensating reactive electrical power (kVAr) in photovoltaic systems to reduce or cancel the surcharges caused by low power factor, since they represent an additional cost in the electricity bill. To compensate for the reactive electric power consumed in electrical systems it is necessary to use elements that produce this type of reactive power, so in this study we propose a method that compensates the reactive electric power demanded from the network next to the system Photovoltaic installed. The selected method was chosen based on studies between different technologies in the field of reactive electric power compensation such as inverters, capacitor banks among others, in addition, an electrical network analyser was used to record the behaviour of the connected load and thus evaluate The effectiveness of this method, when evaluating trends in reactive power consumption before and after implementing the selected method. The proposed method is applied in a real installation and its effectiveness is supported by economic savings by improving the power factor and by environmental savings by achieving a reduction in CO2 carbon dioxide emissions.
