HVDC or AC Integration Studies

HVDC or AC Integration Studies define the technical requirements for equipment needed in integration projects. These studies include a wide range of analysis; from reliability and stability to tele-control and ground electrode studies. These studies look at equipment ratings, main circuit parameters, budgetary restraints and telecom and electro-magnetic interference to ensure that all of your HVDC transmission equipment will work to enhance the operation and reliability of your current system.

Teshmont's staff are experts in conducting HVDC Integration studies, so we have the past experience and tools to ensure your integration projects are completed with minimum risk and with a high degree of efficiency.

 

 

 


In a typical HVDC Integration Study Teshmont will:

  • Analyze the current system and equipment requirements
  • Identify local power flow issues
  • Optimize points of interconnection
  • Conduct the following control and protection studies:
    • Power flow
    • Short circuit
    • Transient stability
    • Load shedding
    • Governor response
    • Voltage stability
    • Small signal stability
    • Islanding and remedial action
    • Reliability
    • Reactive compensation
    • System harmonic impedance
    • Subsynchronous resonance
    • AC and DC filter performance and rating
    • Electromagnetic transient analysis EMTP, EMTDC
    • Electrode design and interference effects
    • Digital simulation
    • AC system equivalents
    • Communication systems
    • Tele-control systems
    • Overload requirements
    • Remedial action schemes
    • Over voltage
  • Preparation of a comprehensive and easily decipherable reports.

 

Benefits you will gain from using Teshmont for a HVDC Integration Study:
  • Opinions from proven experts
  • Elimination of costs for leasing or purchasing control and protection studies tools
  • Determination of the impact of equipment failure and possible solutions
  • Enhancement of equipment and system performance
  • Co-ordination with central control and monitoring
  • Reduction of risk of voltage fluctuations and system performance problems
