The technology applied by the KVAR unit supplies that stored electricity back to your inductive loads, thus causing you to decrease your demand from the utility. If you decrease your demand from the utility, your meter slows down and you use less electricity. The thought is, you’ve already paid for that electricity. Why pay for it and waste it when you can pay for it, store it and reuse it again. This whole process is called power factor optimization. The authority of the power company ends at the sealed meter. Period. When the power company sends you all this electricity much of the wasted electricity is emitted and disposed of throughout your home and all around you. Withi
