Case study of a Multi-Infeed HVDC system
- 2008

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- There are serious concerns relating to a Multi- Infeed HIVDC system when feeding a weak AC network. Typical issues concerning multi-infeed configurations are: need for coordination of the recovery control, need for different DC modulation strategies to stabilize the system, possibility of voltage instability of the area receiving large amount of power from multiple HVDC links and the risk of mutual commutation failures. In contrast, if the area receiving electrical power from multiple HVDC transmission links is relatively strong due to the presence of large amount of generation units nearby there are still some questions that need to be investigated such as the issues underlining the operation of such a multi-infeed system, the proper design of the controls of the HVDC systems and the system dynamic performance under extreme contingencies. This paper investigates into an example of such a multi-infeed HVDC system. The authors have performed small signal analysis of the system to assess instability associated with the control modes. Electromechanical and voltage stability analysis were performed for harmful contingencies. Dynamic performance analysis was also carried out to analyze the interaction amongst various HVDC inverters during disturbances.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Fire carbon emissions over Equatorial Asia (EQAS) play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. Most regional fire emissions (89.0%) occur in the dry season, but how changes in the dry-season length affect the fire emissions remains poorly understood. Here we show that, the length of the EQAS dry season has decreased significantly during 1979–2021, and the delayed dry season onset (5.4 ± 1.6 (± one standard error) days decade−1) due to increased precipitation (36.4 ± 9.1 mm decade−1) in the early dry season is the main reason. The dry season length is strongly correlated with the length of the fire season. Increased precipitation during the early dry season led to a significant reduction (May: −0.7 ± 0.4 Tg C decade−1; August: −12.9 ± 6.7 Tg C decade−1) in fire carbon emissions during the early and peak fire season. Climate models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 project a continued decline in future dry season length in EQAS under medium and high-emission scenarios, implying further reductions in fire carbon emissions.
