ANALISA PENINGKATAN EFISIENSI DAYA PADA UNIT III A PT.PETROKIMIA GRESIK DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN KAPASITOR BANK DAN METODE ALGORITMA GENETIK

In industrial production, loads containing coils of wire (inductor) will absorb reactive and inductive power as well as induction motors, this will have an impact on the number of electrical power losses and the occurrence of voltage drops in the electrical distribution system, therefore on the task, The end of this time will discuss increasing the efficiency of electrical power at Unit III-A PT. Petrokimia Gresik by using a capacitor bank, in this case, initially making SLD (Single Line Diagram) using ETAP software, where the simulation is used to find out the load flow on each load bus, to find out on which bus the capacitor will be installed by paying attention to several factors in SLD load flow, including the lowest voltage, the highest active and reactive power losses and the reactance on the bus that is experiencing interference, after knowing which bus will be the place for the capacitor installation, the method will be used Genetic Algorithm to find out how much capacitor is produced for fixing the voltage on the load bus which is experiencing interference, from the simulation that has been installed the capacitor bank, can inject reactive power losses and improve the active power by 26%
