i need this to give seminar in class so that student get knowledge by this ppt

HVDC TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS ppt

A high-voltage, direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system (also called a power super highway or a electrical super highway)[1][2][3][4][5] uses direct current for the bulk transmission of electrical power, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) systems.[6] For long-distance transmission, HVDC systems may be less expensive and suffer lower electrical losses. For underwater power cables, HVDC avoids the heavy currents required to charge and discharge the cable capacitance each cycle. For shorter distances, the higher cost of DC conversion equipment compared to an AC system may still be warranted, due to other benefits of direct current links.

HVDC allows power transmission between unsynchronized AC transmission systems. Since the power flow through an HVDC page link can be controlled independently of the phase angle between source and load, it can stabilize a network against disturbances due to rapid changes in power. HVDC also allows transfer of power between grid systems running at different frequencies, such as 50 Hz and 60 Hz. This improves the stability and economy of each grid, by allowing exchange of power between incompatible networks.

Trendsetting and innovative Siemens HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) solutions offer an excellent opportunity to support and improve the power supply of sustainable, efficient and reliable future grids. Siemens offers expertise and long-term experience in helping to ensure stable power supply with a high degree of green energy wherever it is needed.
