Power factor of induction generator
An ordinary induction generator connected to a power grid will draw lagging reactive volt-amperes from the grid and supply real power to the grid. It is simultaneously a lagging power-factor load and a unity power factor supply.

Power-factor compensation capacitors could be connected along with the motor to supply the reactive volt-ampere requirements of the inductive generator or the inductive generator plus the load. The induction generator could be connected to the load and/or the grid through an electronic power conversion system that could include provisions to supply reactive-voltamperes to the generator and the load.
