High Voltage DC Active Current Injection to Simulate Geomagnetically Induced Currents in New Zealand
Abstract This study investigates the effects of geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) on New Zealand's electrical infrastructure via an intentional ground injection of direct current (DC) from a high voltage DC converter station. GIC manifests as quasi‐DC currents within power systems, potentially causing transformer saturation, increased reactive ...

The Area Comparison of LCC-HVDC and VSC-HVDC [PDF]
With the mature of high power IGBT, VSC-HVDC technique is gradually adopted in principle power grid with higher voltage and capacity. At present, it is generally considered that compared with traditional HVDC technique, VSC-HVDC will save lots of land resources. However, it is not always the case.

The Geomagnetic Storm on 10–12 May 2024 and Its Effect on the Swedish Power Grid
Abstract On 10–12 May 2024, at least five interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) arrived at Earth and caused the strongest geomagnetic storm in over 20 years. During this geomagnetic storm, a disturbance occurred in a transformer in southern Sweden, causing a drop in power supply in the power line connecting Sweden and Poland.
