Hybrid LCC/VSC HVDC Systems

This tutorial focuses on the hybrid LCC/VSC HVDC system, which combines the LCC and the VSC technologies in one HVDC link. This kind of HVDCs have gained great popularity in recent years. The tutorial has four parts totally. Firstly, the tutorial gives an overview of the WG B4.79, including the background of HVDCs, why the hybrid HVDC is proposed and where it can be applied to, etc. Secondly, it introduces the definition of the hybrid systems, including its configuration, benefits, challenges and some application cases. Thirdly, the tutorial focuses on the hybrid systems with point-to-point configuration and introduces its considerations and typical equipment. Finally, Taking the Wudongde UHVDC project in China Southern Power Grid as an example, the tutorial introduces some typical simulation and experimental results.
