Industry Challenges

Rising energy costs, stricter grid codes, and decarbonization goals are pushing steelmakers to rethink power quality. Electric arc furnaces and large motors are fast-changing, non-linear loads that stress the grid, leading to downtime, penalties, and lost efficiency. Reliable, real-time compensation is no longer optional; it’s a competitive necessity.

Our Solutions

At Southern States we provide cutting-edge solutions designed to meet the unique power needs of the steel industry. From STATCOMs to capacitor banks and SVC upgrades, our products help ensure reliable, efficient, and sustainable power systems, empowering your operations as you move toward a carbon-neutral future.

STATCOMs (Static Synchronous Compensators) are ideal for steel operations, providing fast response to dynamic loads, stabilizing voltage, and reducing flicker. They enhance overall power quality, grid compliance, and support electrification across the plant, while specifically boosting productivity in electric arc furnaces (EAFs) by ensuring stable and efficient operation.

SVCs Updates and Upgrades extend equipment life and optimize performance. We restore aging SVC systems or upgrade to STATCOMs for better efficiency, improved power quality, and lower CAPEX compared to full replacements, offering tailored, cost-effective solutions.

Medium Voltage Harmonic Filters are offered in both open-rack and metal-enclosed configurations, designed to meet the demanding conditions of steelmaking operations. With decades of experience, we engineer tailored filtering systems that enhance power quality, reduce harmonics, and ensure long-term performance in harsh environments.

Power System Studies are an integral part of our approach. We offer steady-state and transient simulations tailored to the steel industry, ensuring that every solution is precisely engineered to your system dynamics, load characteristics, and grid interaction requirements.
