Abstract

High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission has been expanding due to rapid development of power electronics technology and by the need for connection of offshore or remote wind farms and / or large hydro power generators. HVDC transmission has several benefits such as lower transmission losses, fewer lines required for the same power transmission, and less system stability problems.
