Abstract |
Unidirectional power flow voltage source converter high voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) systemscan be advantageously used in future dc subsea electric transmission and distribution systems (DC-SETDS) in order to reduce cost, increase efficiency and reliability. This work proposes a unidirectionalmodular multilevel converter (uMMC) suitable for VSC-HVDC systems used in DC-SETDS. The mainadvantage of the proposal is the reduced number of active switches, lowering costs and increasing relia-bility. Suitable currents and voltages control strategies are presented, as well as simulation results. |
