Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2011160678A1] A power electronic converter for high voltage direct current power transmission and reactive power compensation comprises at least one primary module (54) operably connectable in use between at least two electrical networks, the or each primary module (54) including at least one set of series- connected primary switching elements (56) connected in parallel with an electronic block (58) in a H-bridge arrangement, the or each electronic block (58) including a plurality of secondary switching elements (62) connected to two or more energy storage devices (64) in a multi-level converter arrangement, the switching elements (56,62) of each primary module (54) being controllable in use to switch each energy storage device (64) into or out of circuit so the respective primary module (54) provides at least three discrete output voltages.
