HVDC life extension for Nelson River HVDC system

Abstract: The Nelson River HVDC transmission system in Manitoba, Canada is described with reference to equipment upgrades, equipment replacements and process improvements completed to meet safety, environmental and reliability performance goals.Today's operational environment demands increased HVDC system performance, which in many cases exceeds original equipment capabilities. This coupled with equipment which is approaching the end of its design life has presented additional challenges beyond the standard maintenance … Show more

“…In that project, bipole 1 has a rating of 1854 MW at ±463kV and transmits the power from the northern terminal at Radisson Station over approximately 900 km to the Dorsey terminal near Winnipeg. Bipole 2 has a rating of 2000 MW at ±500 kV and transmits the power to approximately 40 km [10]. The Egyptian/Saudi electrical interconnection project aims to exchange a capacity of 3000 MW between the two countries using HVDC bipolar transmission technology on 500 kV through one substation in Egypt and two substations in Medina & Tabuk in KSA with overhead lines on both and a submarine cable crossing the Gulf of Aqaba [11].…”
