Abstract

Abstract As the DC transmission system of modular multilevel converters for offshore wind power suffers problems like large volume, heavy weight, difficulty in platform transportation, and high cost, a DC transmission scheme for offshore wind power based on diode rectifier units and modular multilevel converters is put forth in the present work; Meanwhile, the features of active-power coordination, the DC harmonic current, and the AC harmonic current of the hybrid converter in this proposed scheme are analyzed to propose control strategies for active power coordination control, DC harmonic current suppression, and AC harmonic current suppression of the hybrid converter, respectively. The performance and feasibility of the proposed strategies are verified by testing the hardware in the loop real-time simulation system for transmission of offshore wind power through hybrid converters based on RTDS. It is found that the proposed strategies could improve the stability, flexibility, and reliability of the system.
