Abstract

Large amount of clean energy resources are always far away from the load center in China. The integration and long distance transmission of these clean energy is hot research topic. One of the proposed solutions is ‘Binded wind and thermal power for LCC HVDC transmission’. However, the coal resources are not large enough to compensate the fluctuation of wind power in some areas. Thus, more flexible HVDC transmission solution for large scale islanded onshore wind power is needed. VSC HVDC transmission solution becomes attractive solution due to its operation flexibility. Considering the technology development of VSC HVDC system and specific characteristics of islanded wind power system, the main technical challenges and corresponding solutions for VSC HVDC transmission systems are discussed and analyzed based on the state-of-art of the engineering and related researches. With the technology development, the VSC HVDC system will be a promise solution for large scale onshore islanded wind power transmission in the future.
