PROMOTioN - Progress on Meshed HVDC Offshore Transmission Networks (PROMOTION)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

In order to unlock the full potential of Europe’s offshore resources, network infrastructure is urgently required, linking off-shore wind parks and on-shore grids in different countries. HVDC technology is envisaged but the deployment of meshed HVDC offshore grids is currently hindered by the high cost of converter technology, lack of experience with protection systems and fault clearance componen ...
