Due to geographical conditions, \u00a0at some places in the state, the problem of poor power factor (PPF) and low voltage persists mainly due to long spans in hilly areas, due to which there is a possibility of deterioration in the power supply situation.<\/p>\n<p>To overcome the problem, UPCL has been working on the installation of Capacitor Bank (PCB) for a total of 101 transformers of a total of 61 33\/11 KV substations across the state. Anil Kumar Yadav, \u00a0Managing Director,UPCL informed that the establishment of capacitor bank in the power system network will be a &#8216;Large Scale&#8217; initiative. The work of establishment of capacitor bank across the state by UPCL is proposed to be completed by March 2025 and successful implementation of the scheme will further improve the quality of electricity supply to the consumers. Along with this, the efficiency of irrigation and drinking water projects in the state will also increase due to improvement in the quality of voltage. The establishment of capacitor bank will give relief to the power consumers from the problem of low voltage, improve Power Factor (PFR), \u00a0help in reducing the power consumption automatically and the distribution system will become more robust as outages will reduce and speed \u200b\u200bwill decrease. It would further solve the problem of faults in the lines \u00a0and reduce pressure on the transformers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Capacitor Bank (PCB) by UPCL to improve power quality Dehradun , Dec 1 Uttarakhand Power Corporation Limited (UPCL) has been using latest technology based equipment to strengthen the power distribution system in the uneven geographical structure and adverse weather conditions of Uttarakhand state.
