HVDC - VSC Systems

The large-scale development of renewable energy sources in transmission networks, combined with public demand to avoid the construction of new overhead lines, has led to an increase in the use of long underground high-voltage cables, the addition of dynamic reactive power support, and new HVDC links using underground DC cables. The growing penetration of power electronics-based devices in the grid has a significant impact on the performance and reliability of the grid. This requires improvements to control and protection systems, as well as a better understanding of dynamic behavior.

Topics covered

Maintenance & French Method of Live Work

Live work refers to the maintenance of electrical installations while they are still energized. This method, developed and used in France for over 50 years, avoids disruptions and the high economic costs associated with powering down for routine maintenance operations on transmission lines and other equipment, such as electrical substations. Avoiding power outages, maintaining a high level of availability of installations, guaranteeing the safety of employees and third parties, and constantly adapting to technical developments—these are the challenges of live work.

Topics covered

icon

A detailed description of the method

icon

Benefits for maintenance teams and system operators

icon

The implementation process

icon

Challenges encountered in implementing the method and solutions.

icon

Presentation of specialised equipment

icon

Operating the network during Live Line Works

Suitability Studies

Managing balance and adequacy across all time horizons is one of the essential missions of TSOs. The Antares-Simulator software, developed by RTE, is an open-source solution that manages all adequacy processes, from very long-term scenarios to weekly adequacy forecasts at the pan-European level. RTE international has developed in-depth knowledge of the Antares-Simulator software in different contexts and has used the tool to manage studies for various types of networks and domains: https://antares-simulator.org/.

Topics covered

icon

The challenges of predicting system suitability

icon

The different types of suitability study

icon

The main principles of modelling a system with Antares using a market approach

icon

The different simulation options and their impact on results

icon

How do you fill in the load, sun and wind time series?
