Abstract: The capacitor commutated converter (CCC) is a new type of HVDC converter topology
which shows promise for use in long distance transmission via cables. This technology
is, thus, a potential candidate for use in HVDC transmission across large bodies of
water. In this paper the technology of Capacitor Commutated Converters (CCC) is
presented and the advantages of the CCC for high power transmission are shown. The
transient performances are presented using PSCAD/EMTDC. The system is derived
from the first CIGRÉ HVDC Benchmark model. The results demonstrate the superior
performance of a CCC link, when connected to a very weak AC system in terms of
increased transmission capacity and improved stability of the AC network.
