Abstract :
This paper deals with the utilization of High Voltage Direct Current connection (HVDC) based on Voltage Source Converter (VSC) technology in Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) topology for the damping of power system oscillation. After a brief introduction to the basics of the MMC-VSC technology and the most common topology, the control configuration is described in detail. Building on these standard control schemes, a supplementary control is incorporated and used to damp power system oscillation in a contingency situation. The proposed approach is then implemented on a 12 bus test system to demonstrate the impact of the control measures on the overall system dynamics.
