KeLiang Assists in China’s First Back-to-Back DC Asynchronous Grid Connection Project
With the development and commissioning of hydropower in western Yunnan Province, the main power transmission grid for the west-to-east power transmission in the Southern Power Grid during the 12th Five-Year Plan period will form a configuration of eight AC and eight DC lines. The transmission distance between the eastern and western AC grids is increasing, and the grid structure with hybrid AC/DC operation is becoming more complex. Implementing asynchronous grid interconnection between Yunnan Grid and the Southern Power Grid can effectively mitigate grid security and stability issues caused by AC/DC power transfer, thereby improving power supply reliability.
