High-voltage DC grids for flexible and efficient electricity transmission

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to design a high-voltage DC transmission network. Integrating large amounts of low-emission, renewable energy into the electricity network requires a transmission network capable of handling intermittency and high variability. This project will develop and functionally demonstrate a high-voltage DC transmission network based on modular multilevel power electronics converters as the future backbone of the transmission network, as an extension and in support of the existing AC network. This project is expected to contribute to a low-carbon, sustainable development of the electricity transmission sector, while maintaining high levels of stability, resilience and security of supply.
