Multiterminal HVDC Light grid

HVDC Light makes it a lot easier to build multiterminal grids than with classic HVDC.

With HVDC Light three or more converter stations can make up a HVDC grid a lot easier than with classic HVDC. Because the HVDC Light converters are voltage controlled there is no need to balance the currents like in "conventional multiterminal" HVDC.

The HVDC Light terminals can be connected to different points in the AC grid or to different AC grids. These DC grids can be radial, meshed or a combination of both, that these can be changed and expanded. In fact multi-terminal configurations and grid alterations can be done in a "plug and operate" fashion, with continued robust performance.
