Hitachi’s HVDC system that enables grid stabilization and long-distance transmission - Hitachi


To expand renewable energy, we need to solve the issue of uneven distribution of power supplies and areas of consumption. At the same time, transmitting a large amount of power over long distances while minimizing the loss of power is required. One of the economical and realistic solutions to these challenges is High Voltage Direct Current, HVDC. Enabling efficient long-distance transmission and the exchange of power among areas, HVDC systems are expected to be in even greater demand in grid-connected renewable energy sectors, such as offshore wind and solar power, and long-distance transmission to high demand areas. Taking advantage of their strengths, Hitachi and ABB work together to advance the LCC-HVDC project between Shin Shinano and Hida, which is currently under construction, and the project for increasing the capacity of the Higashi Shimizu Substation by 600 MW with adopting a VSC-HVDC system. Hitachi will contribute to electric power system reforms and stable power supply through its rich experience and world-leading technologies on HVDC. ※In 2014, Hitachi formed a strategic partnership with ABB, which is a world-leading company in HVDC technologies. In 2015, we established Hitachi ABB HVDC Technologies, a joint venture company for HVDC business in Japan. https://ift.tt/2YBm4oy support@endlesssupplies.ca (Endless Supplies .Ca) December 11, 2019 at 03:37AM
