Geothermal systems often include variable speed drives for pumps and other equipment that can introduce harmonics into the power grid.
Janitza's power analyzers can detect and analyze harmonic distortion, helping to keep harmonic levels within acceptable limits according to standards such as IEEE 519 or IEC 61000. By using these devices and technologies, geothermal plants can maintain high standards for power quality, ensuring operational reliability and efficiency while minimizing equipment wear and reducing downtime.
Maximizing the efficiency of a geothermal system includes optimizing the operation and maintenance of the system.
Janitza energy meters enable comprehensive monitoring of energy production. By continuously tracking energy flows and consumption within the plant, operators can identify inefficiencies or losses in the system and optimize the operation of pumps, turbines and other critical components. The data can be visualized directly via the Janitza PRO series homepage or via the GridVis® grid monitoring software. By using Janitza technologies, geothermal power plants can significantly increase their operating efficiency, reduce costs and increase the reliability and service life of their systems.
Geothermal energy is emerging as one of the most reliable sources of renewable energy because of its constant availability and sustainable nature. Geothermal plants use hydrothermal resources that have both water and heat.
Geothermal parks use steam or heat extracted from the earth to generate electricity, heat and cooling energy. The technologies used include dry steam, flash steam and binary cycle. Precise monitoring of power quality and energy generation ensures stable power generation and maximum energy efficiency.
