Grid Support

Engineered systems that strengthen and stabilize electrical grids. We design and integrate solutions for frequency regulation, peak shaving, voltage support, and renewable integration—combining power electronics, control systems, and robust electrical infrastructure to enhance grid reliability and flexibility.

STATCOM

A STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) is one of the most effective technologies for stabilizing voltage in power systems facing increasing complexity, electrification, and renewable integration. As grid conditions become more dynamic, STATCOM provides fast, precise, and reliable reactive power support.

PSW Power delivers engineering, advisory, and project services that enable seamless integration of STATCOM solutions into both transmission and distribution networks.

Why STATCOM?

A STATCOM is a VSC‑based (Voltage Source Converter) device that continuously regulates voltage by injecting or absorbing reactive power. The technology offers:

Sub-cycle response times (2-10ms)

Full reactive power capability even at low voltages

Low harmonic distortion (especially with MMC technology)

Stable operations in grids with low short-circuit strength (SCR)

Typical applications

STATCOM is particularly valuable in:

Areas with high renewable penetration

Long cable systems and fjord crossings

Industrial sites with large and rapidly varying loads

Distribution networks with voltage stability issues

Transmission systems requiring dynamic voltage support

PSW Power & Automation provides assessment, design, and implementation of STATCOM solutions tailored to local grid conditions.

UPS

The PSW utility‑scale outdoor UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) system offers a modern alternative to traditional data‑center UPS infrastructure. By integrating advanced energy‑management software, grid‑stabilization technologies, and our deep expertise in electrical power systems, the solution delivers true UPS‑grade power quality directly at the medium‑voltage level.

Installed outdoors and connected to the facility’s MV grid interface, the system ensures continuous, high‑quality power with or without diesel‑generator backup. This architecture significantly reduces system complexity and CAPEX while enabling bidirectional power flow, allowing excess energy to be exported back to the grid.

One solution. Endless function.

The solution combines:

Power disturbances mitigated by a UPS

UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) ensures continuous, stable power delivery to critical electrical equipment. Its primary function is to protect connected loads from power disturbances and to keep them operating during outages until the utility supply returns or backup generators take over. If no secondary power source is available, the UPS provides sufficient battery runtime to allow for a controlled shutdown, preventing data loss or equipment damage. Depending on the UPS rating and required autonomy, batteries may be installed internally or externally.

A UPS safeguards equipment against a wide range of grid-related or installation-related power quality issues:

Power outage (Blackout)

A complete loss of electrical power in part of or across the entire grid, affecting anything from a single building to a large geographical area.

Frequency variations

Typically caused by load fluctuations on the public grid, affecting equipment with electromagnetic components such as motors.

Sag & Brownout

A complete loss of electrical power in part of or across the entire grid, affecting anything from a single building to a large geographical area.

Harmonic distortion

Voltage or current waveform distortion, usually generated by nonlinear loads within building

Over-voltage

A complete loss of electrical power in part of or across the entire grid, affecting anything from a single building to a large geographical area.

Transients/surges

Short-duration voltage spikes caused by lightning strikes or switching operations within the electrical installation.

Operating modes of UPS systems

UPSs support several operating modes, including high-efficiency configurations

UPS MODE


The UPS continuously converts incoming AC power to DC via the rectifier and then back to AC through the inverter. The batteries are connected to the DC bus and remain charged. This mode provides full voltage and frequency regulation, delivering clean, stable power regardless of grid disturbances. It offers maximum protection but has higher energy consumption. The batteries are activated when the utility supply fails. The UPS switches to battery power with zero transfer time, ensuring uninterrupted, conditioned output to the load.

UPS & STATCOM MODE


In addition to UPS Mode, the power modules operate in STATCOM mode to ensure power factor correction and voltage quality regulation on both input and output.

BYPASS MODE


The bypass switch feeds the load directly from the bypass source. This occurs during internal UPS faults or short‑circuit conditions that exceed inverter capacity. It is also used when transferring the load to a maintenance bypass for service activities.

UPS ECO


A traditional high‑efficiency mode where the load is supplied through the bypass, with the UPS operating in parallel with the grid and the load.

UPS ECO STATCOM


A traditional high‑efficiency mode where the load is supplied through the bypass, with the UPS operating in parallel with the grid and the load. The power modules operate in STATCOM mode to ensure power factor correction and voltage quality regulation on both input and output.

Asset Management System

AMS collects and transmits data to all connected assets and orchestrates all single entities of assets to convene their capabilities for use in the energy and/or balancing markets. This therefore makes it possible for smaller assets, which are unable to participate alone, to take part in delivering balancing services, and thus smaller assets can also receive income from their flexibility.

As AMS collects all relevant data, it also shares asset and market specific data with Asset Hub, enabling full transparency with our clients. AMS functions as Market Participation as a Service and enables asset owners to take advantage of these growing markets without having to invest time and capital in their own technologically developed systems.
