Abstract

A method in a controller controlling a dynamic power compensator. The dynamic power compensator is arranged to provide active and reactive power to an electric power system, the dynamic power compensator including a battery energy storage. The method includes the steps of: monitoring a state of charge of the battery energy storage; detecting a voltage level in the electric power system requiring increased delivery of the reactive power to the electric power system; and controlling the battery energy storage in dependence on the monitored state of charge and detected voltage level. The invention also relates to a controller, computer programs and computer program products.
