Reactive power can cause energy losses and damage to electrical equipment within the electricity grid. That\u2019s why the Dutch grid operators are investigating ways to compensate reactive power by using flexible assets of customers. <\/p>\n

What is Reactive Power?<\/h2>\n

Reactive power is the part of electrical power required to generate magnetic or electric fields in devices such as motors and transformers. This power does not perform direct useful work (like driving machinery or lighting), but it is essential for the operation of many types of equipment.<\/p>\n

Because reactive power causes voltage and current to fall out of phase, a higher current is needed to deliver the desired active power. This leads to:<\/p>\n
