  • Abstract
    The global need for more energy supplies makes a shift necessary from fossil fuels to renewable sources. To transmit renewable energies from remote locations to the load centers HVDC is a very attractive solution. Recent progress of power electronics enabled low loss converters to take the challenge of integrating more renewable energy sources. This plenary session focuses on the key technologies of HVDC.
