Publication of Research by the Lead Institution in an International Journal
The C2 Grid Hub research team investigated the mechanisms of AC–DC power imbalances and DC-link voltage excursions in GFM converters caused by AC faults in future MTDC-interconnected power systems. The team developed a mitigation strategy considering power-flow direction and current-limiting conditions, and the study was accepted for publication in an international journal.
