    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-voltage direct current HVDC ; hybrid alternate-common arm converter HACC ; hybrid converters; line-commutated converters LCCs ; modular multilevel converters MMCs ; thyristors; Hybrid alternate-common-arm converter HACC ; hybrid omvandlare; högspänd likströmsöverföring HVDC ; linjekommuterade omvandlare LCC ; modulära multinivåomvandlare MMC ; tyristorer; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The line-commutated converter (LCC) and the voltage-source converter (VSC) are the two main converter technologies utilized in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission applications. Depending on the application requirements, one technology might be more advantageous than the other. READ MORE

  6. 4. Multi-terminal HVDC protections based on transient line modeling

    Author : Niclas Johannesson; Staffan Norrga; Hans-Peter Nee; Jef Berteen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HVDC transmission; HVDC protection; traveling wave protection; MTDC protection; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : High voltage direct current (HVDC) is considered one of the critical technologies required for the power system to enable the transition toward renewables. With an increasing geographical density of HVDC converters, there is a potential for optimization by connecting more than two converters into a shared DC transmission system, thus forming a multi-terminal HVDC (MTDC) system.
