A synchronous condenser is treated as a DC-excited synchronous motor that adjusts temperature and power according to the electric power transmission grid. Synchronous compensators, also called synchronous condensers, are designed to control the voltage level in a network area continuously. They can produce or consume reactive power depending on the value of the excitation current. Synchronous condensers are an alternative to capacitor banks for power-factor correction in power grids.
