Abstract

A control method for suppressing an overvoltage of the receiving end hybrid modular multilevel converter with full-bridge submodules and half-bridge submodules (F/HMMC) under the fault at the receiving-end alternating-current (AC) system of the hybrid high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission system. After a short-circuit fault occurs in a receiving-end AC) system of the hybrid HVDC transmission system, an AC voltage drop is generated, and the effective voltage of the receiving-end AC bus at the current time is measured. Because the hybrid modular multilevel converter (MMC) is capable of actively decreasing the DC voltage for operation, on a premise of ensuring that its output current is always within a rated current range, a control manner of setting the reference DC voltage and making the reference DC voltage not greater than the effective voltage of the AC bus enables receiving end power to be sent out, thereby suppressing an overvoltage of the receiving-end F/HMMC.
