  2. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    A point on a grid having a number of machines with an SCR above a number between 1 and 1.5 has less vulnerability to voltage instability. Hence, such a grid is known strong grid or power system. A power system (grid) having a lower SCR has more vulnerability to grid voltage instability.

  3. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    For example, to get 1 kW of real power, if the power factor is unity, 1 kVA of apparent power needs to be transferred (1 kW ÷ 1 = 1 kVA). At low values of power factor, more apparent power needs to be transferred to get the same real power. To get 1 kW of real power at 0.2 power factor, 5 kVA of apparent power needs to be transferred (1 kW ÷ ...

  4. Load factor (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_factor_(electrical)

    In electrical engineering the load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specified time period. [1] It is a measure of the utilization rate, or efficiency of electrical energy usage; a high load factor indicates that load is using the electric system more efficiently, whereas consumers or generators that underutilize the electric distribution will have a low load ...

  5. Levelized cost of electricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levelized_cost_of_electricity

    The cost of a electricity production depends on costs during the expected lifetime of the generator and the amount of electricity the generator is expected to produce over its lifetime. The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is the average cost in currency per energy unit, for example, EUR per kilowatt-hour or AUD per megawatt-hour. [3]

  6. Cost of electricity by source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source

    The average capacity factor of all commercial nuclear power plants in the world in 2020 was 80.3% (83.1% the prior year) but this includes outdated Generation II nuclear power plants and countries like France which run their nuclear power plants load following which reduces the capacity factor. [28]

  7. Power-flow study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-flow_study

    In power engineering, the power-flow study, or load-flow study, is a numerical analysis of the flow of electric power in an interconnected system. A power-flow study usually uses simplified notations such as a one-line diagram and per-unit system, and focuses on various aspects of AC power parameters, such as Voltage, voltage angles, real power and reactive power.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_School_RuneScape

    Old School RuneScape is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), developed and published by Jagex.The game was released on 16 February 2013. When Old School RuneScape launched, it began as an August 2007 version of the game RuneScape, which was highly popular prior to the launch of RuneScape 3.

  9. Load-loss factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load-loss_factor

    Multiple empirical formulae exist that relate the loss factor to the load factor (Dickert et al. in 2009 listed nine [5]). Similarly, the ratio between the average and the peak current is called form coefficient k [ 6 ] or peak responsibility factor k , [ 7 ] its typical value is between 0.2 to 0.8 for distribution networks and 0.8 to 0.95 for ...
