Abstract

Unrestricted use of conventional sources of energy has led to over extraction and depletion in these resources. To continue with the economic, technological and industrial development inspires the search for non-traditional energy sources like the solar, tidal, wind, geological i.e. geothermal energy sources, etc. Extraction of energy from these resources is based on factors like site, cost of installation, cost of production, transmission of power, etc. Wind energy source is one of the most promising and mature sources amongst the non traditional sources of energy. Particularly, offshore wind farms are more suitable for large scale production. However, long distances transmission of power is a matter of concern. High Voltage Alternating Current (HVAC) or High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) systems can be used for transmission of bulk power over long distances. This paper gives a summary of existing HVAC and HVDC systems. Also, it reviews various converter topologies used in HVDC transmission systems. It also discusses in detail MMC topology for HVDC transmission.

海上风电场高压直流输电变流器:综述

不受限制地使用传统能源已导致这些资源的过度开采和枯竭。随着经济、技术和工业的发展，激发了对非传统能源的探索，如太阳能、潮汐能、风能、地热能等。从这些资源中提取能源取决于场地、安装成本、生产成本、电力传输等因素。在非传统能源中，风能是最具发展前途和最成熟的能源之一。特别是，海上风力发电场更适合大规模生产。然而，电力的长距离传输是一个令人担忧的问题。高压交流(HVAC)或高压直流(HVDC)系统可用于长距离传输大容量电力。本文对现有的暖通空调和直流输电系统进行了总结。此外，它回顾了在高压直流输电系统中使用的各种转换器拓扑结构。详细讨论了高压直流输电的MMC拓扑结构。
