This study focuses on sustaining the voltage generated by an induction motor, crucial for the efficient and reliable operation of induction generators. The objectives include a literature review to understand voltage collapse factors, developing an experimental MATLAB setup for simulations, data collection on voltage behavior under varying loads, and proposing strategies for sustained voltage. Simulation results show a consistent voltage decrease with increasing load, indicating operational limitations. Current flow increases with load, nearing operational limits at higher loads. Voltage stability challenges are evident, particularly at 300 kW, 600kW, and 2500 kW loads, suggesting a need for improved voltage regulation. Capacitors play a crucial role in stabilizing voltage, with higher values showing more significant stabilization effects. The relationship between capacitors and current flow is nuanced, with higher capacitor values potentially leading to slightly lower current values. Capacitors demonstrate varying effects on each phase, highlighting the complexity of their interaction with the electrical system. The study concludes that proper load management, voltage monitoring, and capacitor selection are essential for stable voltage levels. Recommendations include implementing effective load management, selecting appropriate capacitor values, installing voltage monitoring systems and regulation devices, conducting regular maintenance and inspection, and providing training to operators and maintenance personnel. Continuous research and development efforts are also recommended to enhance induction generator efficiency and reliability in voltage regulation and stability
