Power in a capacitor
Instantaneous power (p)
The product of V and I
Positive and negative power
Positive power indicates that the energy is stored by the capacitor
Negative power indicates that the energy is returned from the ca
pacitor
Power fluctuation is twice that of the voltage or current
True power (Ptrue)
Ideally, all the stored energy in the capacitor is returned to the so
urce
No true power
In real world, leakage current and the ESL and ESR consume true
power

The rate at which a capacitor stores or returns energy
Non-zero quantity
Does not represents an energy loss
Unit is volt-ampere reactive (VAR)
