Existing AC power systems, established more than a century ago, are increasingly challenged by DC technologies, enabled by significant advancements in the power electronics and related scientific fields. Three major application areas for DC transmission ar ...
To obtain a resilient and flexible DC grid, reliable means for interfacing its parts operating under different voltage levels must be ensured. This paper proposes bidirectional, isolated, DC–DC converter designed to connect either high/medium voltage bipol ...
In recent years, DC grids have gained momentum due to the advantages they display over their AC counterparts. For instance, high voltage DC grids have been established as the most prominent solution in the underwater power transmission or interconnection o ...
The ever increasing penetration of renewable energy systems in the distribution grids will inevitably require profound changes in the grid infrastructure. One emerging direction, the medium voltage dc (MVdc) grids, is the cornerstone of this work. They are ...
Driven by the environmental changes, penetration of renewables and the need for more flexible power grid, DC is reemerging as a basis for future power networks. Already established in the area of HVDC for very long distance transmission, more and more atte ...
The development of modern and future power systems is associated with the definition of new approaches for their simulation, control, and protection. To give an example, the increasing connection of massive renewable energy conversion systems is justifying ...
This paper aims at proving the application of the fault location method based on the Electromagnetic Time Reversal (EMTR) to multi-terminal HVDC (MTDC) networks. In particular, the paper integrates the EMTR fault location technique with the protection sche ...
Nowadays, several state-of-the-art multilevel converter topologies are used for numerous industrial medium-voltage (MV) high-power variable-speed drive applications. The 3-level neutral point clamped (3L-NPC) topology is one of those and is often used as a ...
Medium voltage drives are essential technology for various high power demanding industrial applications. To satisfy ever increasing customer demands, a power extension of the Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristor (IGCT) based 3L-NPC inverter unit, has been ...
