Introduction into HVDC PLUS

A powerful versatile technology for the power transmission system

The HVDC PLUS (Power Link Universal System) is an attractive supplement in the field of HVDC transmission systems. As opposed to the conventional HVDC, its innovative design opens up new application fields and promises technical as well as economical advantages in certain areas.

Benefit for our environment

The HVDC PLUS is especially well-suited to connect weak or even isolated networks, like off-shore wind parks or oil and gas platforms to the on-shore grid. Therefore it can be considered a key element for environment-friendly power generation and transmission.

Customer for HVDC PLUS

Because of its new application fields, the typical HVDC PLUS can be used not only in the traditional utility segment but also in other areas. The potential users of this system are:

Electrical utilities which like to improve power transmission rating and / or performance of grid, especially attractive concepts are required. Oil and gas companies to electrically connect the remote off-shore platforms with the on-shore grid, which results in a reduction of CO2 and NOX emission and significantly improves the energy availability. Off-shore wind farm owner / developer to transmit the electrical power to the on-shore grid.
