Abstract

The transmission network is one of the key elements of the power network. This chapter presents an overview of the power transmission system evolution, the high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission system technologies, and the ongoing transition of the AC transmission network to a hybrid AC/DC power grid with the integration of large-scale variable renewable energy sources, such as large-scale onshore and offshore wind farms. This chapter sheds light on the key elements and functionalities of the HVDC transmission systems by providing examples of various real-world HVDC systems. Moreover, this chapter also provides a general overview of operational challenges faced by the emerging hybrid AC/DC power grids.
