Master-Slave Approach for a Multi-terminal VSC-HVDC Systems Connected Offshore Wind Farm

The world is facing today the global challenge of energy transition since countries need more and more energy to grow their economy on a planet where resources are limited and poorly distributed. The integration of renewable energies and especially offshore wind energy into high voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) transmission systems demonstrates great flexibility and reliability. In this paper, a control strategy for a multi-terminal VSC-HVDC system based on Master-Slave approach is proposed to automatically share the real power variation and stabilize the DC bus voltage in presence of abnormal operating conditions.
