HVDC Transmission Market Segmentation Analysis:
As per the research analysis, the global HVDC transmission market is segmented by technology, configuration, voltage, application and region. By technology into capacitor commutated converter (CCC), voltage source converter (VSC) and line commutated converter (LCC). By configuration into point-to-point, back-to-back and multi-terminal. By voltage into 350 kV, 350-640 kV, 640-800 kV and 800 kV. By Application into bulk power transmission, interconnection of grids, infeed urban areas, offshore grid and others.
- Capacitor Commutated Converter (CCC)- The HVDC market was introduced to capacitor commutated converters (CCC) at the end of 1990 and they have been used for business purposes since 1999. Numerous installations with great operating performance have been used globally; however, these installations were only limited to back-to-back installations up until now. The CCC concept also has significant benefits for installations with lengthy DC cables; thus, it has been brought up for several HVDC projects involving DC cable installations.
- Voltage Source Converter (VSC)- Using components suitable for high-power electronic applications, such as IGBTs, Voltage Source Converters (VSC) connect HVAC and HVDC systems. VSCs can self-commutate, which allows them to produce AC voltages without relying on an AC system. As a result, black start capability and rapid independent control of active and reactive power are possible. For their constituent parts, such as the 2-level or 3-level converter and the so-called "modules" in an MMC, VSCs maintain a constant polarity of the DC voltage. Switching the current's direction can change the direction of power flow. As a result, VSCs can be integrated into multi-terminal DC systems more quickly.
- Line Commutated Converter (LCC)- Line commutated converters (LCCs) convert when ac supply controls the operation mode. LCCs permit the power conversion processes of ac to dc, ac to ac and dc to ac. Based on thyristor power semiconductors, LCC is an established, cost-effective HVDC technology that allows for the bulk transfer of up to 8 GW of power. LCCs also have built-in DC fault protection because of the substantial DC inductor at the line ends. They are perfect for back-to-back schemes and are available as point-to-point overhead lines, submarine cables and land cables
