Abstract

The HVDC transmission is advantageous for power delivery over long distances and asynchronous interconnections by using overhead lines or underground cables. One of the most important aspects of HVDC systems is its fast and stable controllability [6]. Until recently, the classic HVDC transmission based on thyristors was used for power conversion from AC to DC and vice versa. The appearance of voltage source converter (VSC) makes use of more advanced semiconductor technology instead of thyristors. The VSC-based HVDC installations have several advantages compared to classic HVDC transmission such as independent control of active and reactive power and separate power systems interconnection. VSC-HVDC is also used to reverse the power flow direction without changing the polarity of DC voltage (in multiterminal DC systems), and there are no requirements of fast communication between the two converter stations [7].
