Is it possible to increasing the real power generation by reducing the reactive power in power gen..

Answer / manuks

When we bring down the reactive power, there will be some
decrease in the load current of the machine. Hence we get
more allowance to get additional load on it which eventually
results in more power output from the machine.

Answer / arvind

yes it is possible, but to do that you have to overload the
generator, by doing that real power will increase and there
is no need to supply reactive power.
