Multi-terminal HVDC systems and DC Grids

Challenge

Interconnect three or more regions and power systems to facilitate power

exchange and trading, and to provide added system security, efficiency and

flexibility to the benefit of the overall grid.

GE’s solution

GE’s HVDC enables the interconnection of multiple HVDC converters

providing controllability of power flow and facilitates the future expansion

into HVDC grids.

Benefits include

• Better management and integration of renewable energy generation

• Increases grid security

• Enables cross border energy trading

• Provides more efficient network by reducing reliance on thermal generation
