Why FACTS ?
Why we need transmission interconnections? Within Utility, inter-utility, inter-regional, international interconnections? To pool power plants and load centers so as to minimize total power generation capacity and fuel cost Cost and difficulties in building new transmission lines, difficulty to get right-of-way Existing transmission grid capacity to be tapped to the brim! Most appropriate solution is FACTS technology
