Investigations on the Effects of DC Voltage Control on Inertia Provision in HVDC Converter Stations
This paper first demonstrates that if there is only one station in charge of DC voltage control, this station cannot provide any real inertia power during frequency events but instead adversely produces a small equivalent negative inertia.
Assessment of two DC voltage droop options for small-signal stability in MMC-based multi-terminal DC grids
This study analyzes the stability of multi-terminal HVDC grids with different vendor control strategies for DC voltage regulation.
