OUR ACTIVITIES

Electric power systems in Sweden and the rest of Europe are currently undergoing major changes in both the generation and distribution of electric power.

  • Traditional energy sources will be replaced by a large number of wind and solar power plants.
  • Transmission and distribution systems must be expanded to cope with increased consumption of electric power in a fossil-free society.
  • Increased cabling
  • The number of inverter-controlled loads for e.g. production of hydrogen, charging of electric cars, etc. will increase.

The consequences of such a change will be:

  • Larger frequency and voltage variations
  • Higher harmonic distortion
  • Transients with higher amplitude and longer duration
  • Higher risk of harmonics and ferro-resonances
  • Higher risk of breakdowns and equipment failures

In order to achieve the planned transition with unchanged operational availability, new power quality solutions are required in the form of:

  • Effective filtering and blocking of harmonics at the source of interference
  • Filter solutions for high frequency harmonics (supratones)
  • Damping filters to counteract harmonics, ferro-resonances and coupling transients.
  • Firewalls in the form of non-linear impedances to prevent uncontrolled propagation of disturbances between different parts of the electricity network

With Harmonizer as a partner, you get access to our collective experience and knowledge in network analysis and applications of various power quality improvement measures. This, in combination with our other partners’ construction expertise and product range, makes it possible to offer total power quality commitments from feasibility study to installation and commissioning.
