Technology: VSC with modular multilevel converter design

SVC PLUS uses voltage-sourced converter (VSC) technology based on a modular multilevel converter (MMC) design. It offers a high degree of flexibility in converter design and station layout.

Robust and proven standard components ensure excellent reliability in this latest generation of STATCOM. A small physical footprint reduces turnkey costs and offers an ideal solution when limited space is available.

Highlights

The document lists the following highlights for SVC PLUS, reproduced verbatim: modular multilevel converter in the SVC PLUS system with over 100 installations of experience; the SVC PLUS can be rated up to ±400 Mvar in a single branch solution; containerized SVC PLUS up to ±150 Mvar in a single branch solution; fast voltage regulation under various load conditions during both steady state and transient network conditions; and active filtering as an option.

The document closes by noting that SVC PLUS is the basis for SVC PLUS FS and mobile STATCOM.
