ULTRA HVDC
VSC : A NEW TECHNOLOGY
PROJECT EXAMPLES
Why use HVDC?
• Transmission of bulk power where AC would be uneconomical
• Interconnection between systems which are non -synchronized or weak
• Improvement of AC system performance .
In many circumstances, it is economically and technically advantageous to introduce direct current (DC) links into the electrical supply syste m:

Why Use HVDC?
– Transmission >800km
– Submarine >50km– Frequency
conversion • 50-60Hz
– When synchronism of AC connections is impossible

PROJECT EXAMPLES
What is VSC Transmission
• VSC = Voltage Source Converter• Capacitor normally used as energy
storage• VSC uses Transistor instead of
Thyristor technology
