The company A2B presents a solution to the issue of reactive energy with an emphasis on sustainability and economic efficiency. Considering the energy billing fees, it is advantageous to set the intake for inductive reactive energy with cosф > 0.95 when only the energy of the active component [kWh] is charged, which makes it possible to significantly reduce energy expenses.

The cost of electrical energy consists of two items, active power (kW) and reactive power (kVAr). The reactive power can have capacitive or inductive characteristics. Both items are billed according to the regulations set by the Regulatory Office in each country.

Both of these items compensate each other during operation, but their amounts are never equal to zero under normal conditions and as such, in regard to the billing fees of the electric energy, it is more efficient to set the reactive electric energy for the inductive property with power factor cosϕ > 0.95, as it results in billing fees only for the active power (kWh) with penalty fees not billed.
