Abstract
A power transmission network includes converters interconnected via electrical elements, at least one power flow router, and a controller. Each power flow router being operatively connected to the electrical elements, each power flow router configured to selectively control current flow in the electrical elements so as to direct power between two or more of the plurality of converters. The controller configured to selectively control the converters and each power flow router to control power flow in the power transmission network The controller is configured to carry out a mathematical optimisation to determine optimal operating set points of the converters; after carrying out the mathematical optimisation, carry out another mathematical optimisation to determine optimal current flows in the electrical elements; and control the converters in accordance with each determined optimal operating set point, and control the power flow router(s) to achieve each determined optimal current flow in the electrical elements.
