Active vs Reactive Power Level 200 | Wind Energy Fact

Note: this video is a follow-up video to our “Active vs. Reactive Power: 100 Level” video: • Active vs Reactive Pow...
In the first “100 Level” video, Head of Construction Chelsea gave an overview of active and reactive power, with a real-life example.
The best example of all, however? Wind energy! In this second, more engineering-based video, learn how these types of power can impact conversations One Energy has with companies considering Wind for Industry to directly power their manufacturing facilities.
This “200 level” video is more complex, with a focus on the relevant graphs and equations to understand active and reactive power, and should be viewed as a follow-up to the 100 level introduction video.

Thanks for the concise explanation! Now, I finally understand why do we need to correct the power factor.

[@mrnixie]

Well done for having a crack at explaining reactive power, Chelsea! These topic seems to floor my degree level students every time I try to explain it to them. So I'm going to introduce this video to my teaching (here in the UK). Maybe if they hear it twice, they'll get it... :)

[@kamelalshammari6249]

Great explaining , I work in a power plant and we always have to monitor the gross and net reactive power in the grid

[@capnjazz97]

Great tutorial, thanks!

[@dessieodonnell9247]

Excellent explanation. Well done

[@michaelmorrison7632]

Good explanation you should add that reactive power is actually necessary outside the generator system as a way for inductive Motors to turn you need reactive power

[@TheZanjza]

thanks, very good

[@rockJack-offent]

Good explanation...I am also working at wind energy in India

[@42svb58]

this is great! can there be another video on OPF?

[@abiyedanagogo1577]

Hi thank you for the video. I want to ask if the active power is the power generated by the wind turbine?

[@dhrubajyotighosh1700]

Love your teachinh mam from india ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💓💓💓❤

[@ravibrahmadevi9816]

Hi,
There is a mistake in instantaneous power wave form plotted at 2:40

[@m.a.stough4994]

Right, the curve drawn should start at 0.

[@r.k.t.b3150]

Reactive power is a waste power.But can you explain the advantage of reactive power??

[@worldinandaround]

Is this wind energy company?

[@onepowerco]

Hi @InsaneEngineering!
We're a wind energy company - but we're also a whole lot more.
One Energy is an Industrial Power Company - we provide various solutions to large C&I customers, including (but not limited to) wind energy projects.
Our Wind for Industry projects are installed behind the meter, to power factories and industrial facilities.

@@onepowerco manufacture wind turbine?

[@chakra.g]

Without reactive power no magnetic field produce in motors, transformers

[@blurryface369]

So how come they're magnetic field in simply dc current? When no reactive power involve in this matter

[@cujbaion1]

@@blurryface369The reactive power it’s ahead creating the drag for the generator resulting in active power. In a grid instead of condenser like in 220V the HV lines are used to create that advanced reactive power. 380V generator is weak at startup because the condenser capacity is consumed by the engine. That stabilizes the frequency but tension drops and starting torque on the motor is lower. 🙃
