Modeling and Analysis of a Novel Grid Connection Topology for Offshore Wind Farms using MMC-HVDC Transmission

To meet the goals of the Paris Agreement, the Netherlands is integrating large amounts of offshore wind energy into the power system and has ambitious plans for the coming years. A grid topology with transmission capacity above 1 GW connecting offshore wind farms (OWFs) at distances close to 100 km in a standardized, modular, and cost...
