Interrgional Reactive Power Management EPRIs Interregional Reactive Power Management project aims at developing better methods for efficient use of reactive power resources and voltage control in order to improve power system operation reliability, security, and the functioning of markets. Reactive power planning is a key component. New methods are needed to help planners design systems which remain strong and robust under all conditions and contingencies. 2006 Results Development of highly automated method which identify “critical voltage control areas” in a system (for wide ranging topology, conditions, transfers and contingencies) and the required reactive power reserve solutions which will ensure system security. © 2007 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc.

Bidirectional HVDC Valve and Tripole Concepts Objectives • • Enabling power reverse on a DC transmission, without reversing Voltage Polarities at the transmission ends Tapping of existing HVDC lines AC to DC line conversion Providing a means for more reliable, less costly applications of Cross Link Polyethylene (XLPE) cable for submarine & underground © 2007 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved. 14
Conversion of an AC Line into a Tripole DC Line • Higher $$/MW cost. Usually offset by increased transmission capacity • About 40% more capacity compared to a bipole using the same 3 -conductor system • High redundancy: Loss of a converter or pole position drops just 16% of power at peak load © 2007 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. All rights reserved. 15
2007 Planned Activity - Tools for Assessing Conversion of AC Power Transmission Lines to Tripole DC Transmission Phase I Objective - Feasibility Assessment Tools - An assessment of alternative dc configurations and system benefits. Procedures, technical background and software references sufficient to assess conversion of specific ac transmission structures to dc Guidance in the logistics of AC to DC conversion Phase II - Applications Studies - Assessment of ac to dc adaptation of existing transmission structures, including maximum dc voltage System load flow and dynamic solutions, including modeling of detailed dc characteristics associated with various dc options Cost/benefit analysis associated with conversion alternatives including comparison with ac flow enhancement measures Phase III - AC to DC Conversion Assessment Software - Software tool for AC/Tripole DC Transmission Conversion © 2007 Electric Power Research Institute, Inc.
