Our Bureau

NEW DELHI: Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) has developed a new series compensation scheme - Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) - for reducing power losses and speedy transmission.

The FACTS will enhance power transfer capability of the system and reduce transmission losses in 400 kV lines considerably, according to a company release.

BHEL established the technology, developed in-house, while executing the second phase of the project for PowerGrid's Kanpur-Ballavgarh 400 kV lines.

The company has also developed in-house an automatic device that adjusts itself to the system's requirement in less than 10 milliseconds.

It reduces system losses and improves power system stability in high-voltage transmission lines.
