Static reactive power compensators can maintain a pre-programmed stable voltage level.
Alejandro Rodríguez, Francisco J. Muñoz, in Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronic Power Engineering, 2023 The appearance of the Static VAR (reactive) Compensator (SVC) is a consequence of replacing electromechanical devices with equipment designed with power electronic components.
With the circuit topology presented in this article, it is possible to construct reactive power compensation devices, which are significantly more economical than comparable SVC (Static Var Compensators), though they exhibit nearly the same functional properties.
However, static VAR compensators are more expensive than mechanically switched capacitors, so many system operators use a combination of the two technologies (sometimes in the same installation), using the static VAR compensator to provide support for fast changes and the mechanically switched capacitors to provide steady-state VARs.
This compensator injects or absorbs reactive power whether the system demands it. The reactive power flow direction is determined by differences in voltage magnitudes between the network to be compensated and the converter.
In this paper, the three-phase static voltage converter operation modes was analyzed, and the design-appropriate performance under different operating conditions was demonstrated. It has been shown that STATCOM improves power quality by reducing power oscillations and compensating for reactive power, as well as regulating and stabilizing voltage.

In Electrical Engineering, a static VAR compensator (SVC) is a set of electrical devices for providing fast-acting reactive power on high-voltage electricity transmission networks. SVCs are part of the flexible AC transmission system device family, regulating voltage, power factor, harmonics and stabilizing the system.
