SuperGrid Institute wins 4 new European projects!
SuperGrid Institute has been extremely successful within the Horizon Europe framework, winning 4 project bids it submitted to the European Commission.
SuperGrid Institute is coordinator of the European project HVDC-WISE
The HVDC-WISE project was officially launched on the 10th of October with a kick-off meeting assembling all project partners in Lyon.
Hybridisation of electrical systems: the advantages of hydroelectricity exposed at Business Hydro
From the 10th to the 11th of October, we will take part in the Business Hydro Meetings. One of the meetings’ key topics will be the hybridisation of hydroelectric power plants.
Influence of Stabilization Time and Post Processing Methods on the Accuracy of DC Conductivity Measurements
The aim of this work is to study the influence of the measurement duration and method on the final DC conductivity estimations...
Test Systems and Models for DC/DC Converters intended for DC Transmission Grid Applications
The paper reports on the development of two 600 MW test DC-DC converters in the CIGRE B4.76 working group.
Medium Voltage Diode Rectifier Design for High Step-Up DC-DC Converter
A medium voltage rectifier, relying on series connection of SiC Schottky diodes, is designed and tested within a unidirectional isolated DC-DC converter.
It’s festival time again with the Fête de la Science at SuperGrid Institute!
We’re very happy to be opening our doors to schools and the general public for the Fête de la Science once again this year!
Open-Delta SBC: a New Converter Topology with Low Number of Sub-Modules for MV applications
This paper aims at giving a contribution to this field by proposing a new converter topology for MVDC applications.
Experimental study of the reduction and removal of turn-on snubber and its limiting di/dt clamp inductor for IGCT based MMC submodule using fast silicon diodes
The goal of this study is to determine if the snubber can simply be removed in IGCT if fast enough freewheeling diodes are used.
DC-MMC with reduced number of sub-modules providing fault blocking capability in HVDC Grids
This paper proposes to use a main switch instead of adding sub-modules in the topology to provide fault blocking capability.
