Preparing HVDC grids for a more connected energy system
Renewable energy increasingly needs to be transmitted across long distances and interconnected networks. Multi-terminal HVDC grids can provide the flexibility required for reliable power exchange, but they also create new requirements for interoperability, system control, and DC switching.
This CIGRE session explores future multivendor DC grids and ultra-fast, power-electronics-based DC circuit breaker technology. It also considers how joint development can support practical and future-ready HVDC grid solutions.
What you will learn
- How multi-terminal HVDC grids can support flexible power exchange
- Why interoperability is essential for future multivendor DC grids
- How DC circuit breakers support flexibility and advanced control
- How collaborative development can accelerate future HVDC grid solutions
