Abstract |
This paper describes AREVA T&D effort to
develop a economically attractive VSC solution based on the
IEGT. Its wide Safe Operating Area (SOA), leads to the
elimination of anode reactance and a significant reduction in
the size of snubbing components. These features combined
with the simplified gate voltage control, self limiting current
capability and reduction in the size of protection circuitry is
expected to enable the size of installations to be drastically
reduced. |
