A first voltage source converter and converter station including such a first voltage source converter, as well as a method and computer program product for controlling the first voltage source converter are disclosed. The first voltage source converter has a DC side for connection to a DC system, has an AC side for connection to an AC system and is interconnected with an AC side of a second voltage source converter, which has a DC side connected to the DC system. The first voltage source converter includes a number of converter valve pairs, each being connected to a corresponding AC phase of the AC system and a control unit controlling the converter valves to generate at least one AC waveform and to reduce oscillations between the converters.

Controlling a voltage source converter in a DC system

A method is provided for controlling power flow within a wind park system for power transmission to a main power grid, the wind park system including two or more parallel-connected island wind park grids. The method includes the steps of: controlling a first voltage source converter as a swing bus in frequency control, the frequency control including controlling frequency to a steady state reference operating point for operating points within a power dead band and by frequency droop control when exceeding an end point of the power dead band, and controlling at least a second voltage source converter in power control, the power control including controlling power flow to a steady state reference operating point for operating points within a frequency dead band and by power droop control when exceeding an end point of the frequency dead band. A controller and computer program product are also provided.

Method for controlling power flow within a wind park system, controller, computer program and computer program products

A method for controlling power flow within a multi-terminal DC power transmission system including two or more converter stations and the corresponding multi-terminal DC power transmission system are provided. The method includes the steps of: controlling the power flow to a steady state reference operating point for operating points within a control dead band defined for each respective converter station, and controlling the power flow by means of droop control in at least one of the converter stations upon detection of exceeding of an end point of one or more of the control dead bands.
