DESCRIPTION:The challenges to supply clean\, stable\, and low-cost energy h
 ave been obstacles that utilities\, energy developers and end-users have b
 een trying to solve for years. It is now becoming even more important\, wi
 th today’s economic environment and technological advances\, to ensure t
 hat manufacturing and industrial production stay at their peak performance
  while being efficient with their energy use. Industrial loads both large 
 and small can have an adverse impact on their own facilities as well as th
 eir neighboring customers’ facilities. On the flip-side\, grid related p
 ower quality events can have an adverse impact on the facility and potenti
 ally cause them to shut down\, leading to lost profits and revenues. As wi
 nd and solar continue to increase their global footprint\, power quality a
 nd voltage management adherence and compliance are becoming more and more 
 challenging. STATCOM technology can help solve a broad spectrum of issues\
 , from transmission all the way to end-user applications. This presentatio
 n will cover a high-level overview of the technology and application speci
 fic case studies that include:\n\n- Renewable Integration\n- Wind Farm Cas
 e Study\n- Solar Plant Integration\n\n- Industrial Power Quality\n- Protec
 ting Critical Manufacturing Against Voltage Sags/Swells\n- Helping Light I
