Development of HVDC Transmission Technology and Its Role in Power Network in China

The electric power network in China is facing with the situation of unprecedented devebpment. HVDC transmission is with the characteristics of bng distance, large capacity and flexible control etc. for power transmission, which will undertake the major task of power transmission in building and planning HVDC transmission projects for power transmission from west to east, mutual power supply for south and north, and play the important role in future Nation - wide power network interconnection. To do the best research, planning and construction for HVDC transmission is the important task for power network devebpment in the future in China.
