Abstract |
In the frame of a collaboration project within Swiss Competence Centre for Energy Research, a MultiTerminal DC pilot has been implemented. For the interaction with the medium voltage AC grid, aModular Multilevel Converter has been designed for its features in low harmonic content, scalability,and flexibility. The control of converters in the MTDC network implements a non-dead band voltagecontrol. The Energy buffering of the MMC converter will allow the converter to sustain either AC orDC grids. The operation of the MMC converter in an MTDC network containing three converter isverified experimentally in a reduced-scale pilot. |
