Abstract
This paper presents the operational experiences with the different Static VAr Compensators (SVCs) in Ontario, Canada. All these SVCs were installed as a part of long term transmission development plan to facilitate addition of new renewable generation and implementation of supply mix policy in Ontario. This paper intends to bring out important lessons learned with the SVCs for the benefit of power engineering community.
