  • Abstract
    The fundamental reactive power can be compensated by line or force commutated compensators. Installation costs, operational losses and harmonic pollution of these compensators are compared in a power range from 20 kVAr up to 100 MVAr. The detailed analysis shows that the widely applied line commutated compensator is less cost-effective than a force commutated compensator
