A method of reactive power regulation in an electrical network in which electrical
power is produced by an electrical generator preferably driven by the rotor of
a wind power installation and suitably modulated by means of a compensation device
between the generator and the network for the compensation of reactive power, and
an apparatus for producing electrical energy in an electrical network, preferably
an electrical generator driven by the rotor of a wind power installation and a
compensation device between the generator and the network for the compensation
of reactive power. The compensation device is so regulated that the electrical
power delivered to the consumer has a reactive power component which is adapted
in respect of its phase, amplitude and/or frequency to the consumer in such a way
as to compensate for the reactive power in the consumer.
