Dynamic and Operational Challenges in future Power Systems

Inhalt:
This paper reviews ongoing research activities towards the technological implementation of meshed HVDC transmission system structures in Europe. The paper touches on the existing needs of the system and addresses how existing HVDC links could be integrated in order to achieve meshed HVDC grids. It concludes that additional research activities on technical topics are still needed in order to answer still open research questions for the secure and reliable implementation of meshed HVDC grids. Moreover, it highlights the need for European cooperation including TSO, Vendors and research institutes in order to address those topics.
