It’s festival time again with the Fête de la Science at SuperGrid Institute!
We’re very happy to be opening our doors to schools and the general public for the Fête de la Science once again this year!
Open-Delta SBC: a New Converter Topology with Low Number of Sub-Modules for MV applications
This paper aims at giving a contribution to this field by proposing a new converter topology for MVDC applications.
Experimental study of the reduction and removal of turn-on snubber and its limiting di/dt clamp inductor for IGCT based MMC submodule using fast silicon diodes
The goal of this study is to determine if the snubber can simply be removed in IGCT if fast enough freewheeling diodes are used.
DC-MMC with reduced number of sub-modules providing fault blocking capability in HVDC Grids
This paper proposes to use a main switch instead of adding sub-modules in the topology to provide fault blocking capability.
Sharing our latest news on power electronics at EPE’22 ECCE Europe!
This week, several members of SuperGrid Institute are in Hannover to participate in the EPE’22 ECCE Europe conference.
SuperGrid Institute’s technical contributions to the CIGRE 2022
We will be making several appearances in the CIGRE 2022 technical programme. Here is a short summary of our contributions.
Feasibility studies for MTDC grids: NSWPH programme showcase
SuperGrid Institute successfully carried out a technical feasibility study for the North Sea Wind Power Hub (NSWPH) programme.
Series connected SiC-MOSFETs voltage balancing : two methods with adaptative delays
This paper presents different embedded measurement techniques in an active gate-driver that adjusts switching delay in real-time.
Integration of power flow controllers in HVDC grids
This work discusses different DC busbar arrangements with PFC and selects a circuit providing good availability...
Design of a test package for high voltage SiC diodes
A custom package for SiC diodes is presented.
