Modeling and Control of DC grids - KBVE/SRBE Robert Sinave Award 2013

Abstract

This paper discusses the background and main contributions of my PhD thesis entitled “modeling and control of DC grids”. The expected advent of multi-terminal HVDC systems and meshed DC grids poses major challenges to the control and operation of our power system. The article describes these challenges and explains how the work has contributed in the field of the development of steady-state and dynamic models to study the future power grid. Furthermore, the article describes new fundamental insights in system interactions that have been analyzed in the thesis.status: publishe
