3-terminal interconnection, 300 MW, ± 200 kV monopolar with sea electrodes
Complete “rehabilitation” decided and included in the Italian national grid development plan and in ENTSOE TYNDP 2016
Good laboratory for demonstrating new HVDC technologies!

Converter technology – Toshiba T&D EuropeDEMO Work - Circuit-topology VSC-converter developed by Toshiba
A buffer-reactor free, half-bridge VSC converter with a special converter transformer:
• Small footprint
• Small leakage flux (low induction currents in nearby metallic structures, e.g., in offshore platforms)
• High reliability (applying state-of-art IGBT device (Toshiba IEGT) )
• full current, pro-rated voltage MMCs (real scale half-bridge modules and controls)
• MV scaled converter transformer
• equipment manufacturing, site installation and operational testing

Insulation of overhead DC lines
21
• Higher accumulation of pollutants
due to electrostatic fields
• Lower dielectric strengths under DC voltage
• Use of Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) silicon coating (high hydrophobicity)
• Definition of test procedures to characterize the behaviour of new and from service RTV coated insulators (fully and partially coated)
Insulation of overhead DC lines
22
• Design and realization of the test set-up for carrying out long duration, multi-stress(sun, rain, salt fog…) ageing test on 6 RTV covered insulator chains (fully and partially coated)
• Design and realization of device for daily monitoring of the level of contamination of insulators under DC voltage
• Installation in Sardinia in July 2016
• Measurements are ongoing
--- > comparison with AC Amicodevice, already installed in the site
Innovative
Multiscale approach -
small & large scale solver
• A set of 56 chemicalspecies and over 600reactions is involved
• The net production of O3is included as well
• small scale simulation computes the ion emission and electric field on the conductor
Ions currents & electric fields
• Large scale solver gives a pictureof the ions currents and theelectric field around theconductors (relevant for corona)
and on the ground (disturbances
on humans)
