Optimisation of energy solutions: Alternative energy, reactive power compensation, and energy efficiency management

Abstract

The relevance of the problem under study is determined by the need to create a sustainable, efficient and environmentally safe energy complex. The growth of the world population, industrial development, and overall energy demand endanger the provision of society’s energy needs, making the need for research urgent at the present time. The purpose of the study is to examine optimal energy optimisation strategies, including alternative energy, compensation of reactive power, and energy efficiency management, to ensure the stable and efficient functioning of the energy complex. Among the methods used, analytical, classification, functional, statistical, and synthesis methods were applied. In investigating the optimisation of energy solutions, a thorough analysis of various aspects of alternative energy, reactive power compensation, and energy efficiency management was conducted. This analysis encompassed various aspects and parameters related to these areas, including technical, economic, and environmental indicators. As a result of the study, it was established that alternative energy has significant potential for ensuring sustainable development of the energy system. It can serve as a reliable source of energy that does not harm the environment and is not dependent on limited resources. In addition, reactive power compensation was recognised as an effective way to avoid energy losses in the system. This strategy helps to ensure more efficient energy use and reduce losses during transmission and distribution. Energy efficiency management also proved to be a key aspect in achieving energy supply sustainability. This allows optimising resource utilisation, reducing energy costs, and mitigating the negative impact on the environment. The practical value of the study lies in the development of innovative recommendations and strategies for energy optimisation, which will contribute to the creation of a stable, efficient, and environmentally safe energy complex and enhance its compliance with current and future challenges, making a considerable contribution to the development of science and the energy sector.
