Transmission
Systems
The advantages of HVDC systems are fast
and reversible power flow, asynchronous
and decoupled connection of two grids,
frequency control and power oscillation
damping capabilities.

VSC-based Systems
Voltage Source Converters (VSC) use high voltage Insulated Gate Bipolar
Transistor (IGBTs) capable of carrying high currents and switching at high
frequency of a few kHz for pulse width modulation.
VSC’s are capable of operating in all four quadrants on the active power (P)
and reactive power (Q) plane. Depending upon the requirements, the VSC
can be operated to supply or absorb reactive power from the grid.
Since VSC-based HVDC uses high frequency PWM technique for the AC to
DC conversion and nd vice-versa, it does not introduce any low frequency
harmonics.

Key features of VSC-based HVDC
Systems power losses of around 0.7% at full load (per end, excluding the HVDC
line or cable) while with 2-level voltage-source converters the equivalent
figure is 2-3% per end.
