The STATCOM provides reactive compensation without ac capacitors or reactors. Correct Answer True

The STATCOM provides reactive compensation without ac capacitors or reactors. It automatically produces or takes in the reactive power exchanged with the system because of its intrinsic capability to exchange both real and reactive power with the ac system, just like a synchronous machine does. However, the real power exchanged must be supplied to it, or absorbed from it, by the ac system.
