This thesis studies the opportunities for improving the stability of hybrid AC and DC networks by means of active power control.
This thesis addresses the condition monitoring and the prognosis of the remaining useful life of IGBT modules in a HVDC-MMC application.
This thesis focuses on the study and development of high-voltage components using series-connected silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs.
This thesis focuses on the development of numerical methods for electromagnetic transients - transient stability (EMT-TS) co-simulation.
This work proposes to exploit the potential of the Supervisory Control Theory in the automation of HVDC grids & management of their reconfigurable behavior.
This thesis studies the dc-dc converters interconnecting High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) lines with different characteristics.
The objectives of the thesis is to identify the main challenges of applying fully selective FCS in HVDC grid.
Hydro power plants can be the most prominent solution as they are both renewable & capable of following the load demand by controlling its output.
This manuscript investigates the potential of Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristors (IGCT) for Modular Multi-Level Converters (MMC).
