I have seen some proposals to require VAR capability in photoelectric installations but how feasible is that? I cannot imagine utility customers being pleased with having to pay extra for such a nebulous to them capability.
I could see the utility companies pushing it as a requirement in lieu of installing banks of synchronous condensers. Maybe this could be integrated with net metering so that users get paid for providing VAR correction and pay for VARs but I bet it would be politically infeasible. Thinking about the stability problems associated with distributed generation gives me a headache. I am inclined to believe that any solution which relies on central management or timing is an invitation to major failure.
