Abstract

Modular multilevel Converter (MMC) is a new type of voltage source converter (VSC) topology. The use of this converter in a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) system is called by a MMC-HVDC system. The MMC-HVDC has the advantage in terms of scalability, performance, and efficiency over two-and three-level VSC-HVDC. In this paper, the MMC-HVDC system is used to connect between main grid in Jeju Island and virtual offshore wind farms. The aim is to transfer the power from offshore wind farm to the main grid and to compensate reactive power for the main grid. The simulation is carried out by using PSCAD/EMTDC program, and the results will confirm the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
