For MMC-MTDC with HVDC CBs and SFCLs, this paper firstly analyzed the dc fault characteristics based on the equivalent electrical circuit for different operation stages. Then, this paper introduced the basic principle of resistive SFCLs and inductive SFCLs, and their effect in limiting the dc fault current. Based on the main purposes for installing SFCLs, this paper proposed a dc side main circuit parameters selection method for determining the parameters of the smoothing reactor and the SFCLs. The case studies are performed on a ±500 kV 3-ternimal MMC-MTDC system. The time-domain simulation results showed that both the resistive SFCLs and the inductive SFCLs could limit the dc fault current to a reasonable extend by selecting the proper parameters of the smoothing reactor and the SFCLs, and the energy stress on the voltage limiting element of the HVDC CBs is more severe when using the inductive SFCLs.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116999569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The adaptability of the renewable energy to the VSC-HVDC grid will become an important factor affecting the operation of the grid. China has built the Nanao three-terminal VSC-HVDC project, the Zhoushan five-terminal VSC-HVDC project, and the two- terminal of the Xiamen VSC-HVDC project. Breakthroughs have been made in the impact of AC/DC system interconnection and key equipment technologies for VSC-HVDC transmission systems, especially VSC-HVDC converters and control protection technology. This paper focuses on the two main problems with renewable energy island integration. The first problem is how the VSC-HVDC grid provides a stable AC voltage to the renewable energy source without AC grid support. The second issue is how to maintain the energy balance of the VSC-HVDC system in the event of a fault. When the receiving end fails, the power energy cannot be sent out. When the sending end fails, the energy will accumulate in the VSC-HVDC grid. The resulting overvoltage and overcurrent problems require new control protection technology to will be introduced in this paper.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123590065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, based on the IEEE-33 nodes example, the load curve of the ADN transformer node is established, and the load is subdivided into two types: rigid load and flexible load. Then, the active distribution network regulation model of flexible load and adjustable load is established in order to simulate the adjustment effect of DR on the load curve. Finally, the thermal aging model and the percentage of loss of life (LOL%) are used to calculate the life loss of the transformer before and after DR.

This will significantly increase the wide uptake of renewable energy sources. Voltage source converters (VSCs) are the main building blocks of modern DC systems. Achieving a high reliability is an important aspect of selecting the converters for a specific project. However, it is still unclear which type of VSC is the most suitable solution for MVDC systems. This paper addresses this question from the reliability point of view. Three commonly used VSCs are considered for the analysis namely, two-level (2L), three-level NPC (3L-NPC), modular multi-level (MMC) converters and the cascaded three-level VSC which is currently being built for the first MVDC link in the UK. The results suggest that during the early stage of operation MMC shows a higher reliability. However, in the long run the other VSCs have shown higher reliabilities.","PeriodicalId":257974,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Innovative Smart Grid Technologies - Asia (ISGT Asia)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129841642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
