ReFlexions

This is a series of posts on the different technologies we are developing in the FlexH2 project. We will not go into technical details here but rather provide a basis for understanding the technology developed and provide a sufficient context of its relevance in the energy transition. 


Our next ReFlexion on Long distance transmission with HVDC technology

It’s about Modular Multi-level Converters

A ReFlexion of Carl Barker, Consulting Engineer at GE Vernova

Increasing the voltage enables energy transmission over a long distance, since it reduces the energy losses. High-voltage (HV) transmission can be in Alternating Current (AC) or Direct Current (DC). For transmitting power over approximately 80 kilometres, typically, HVDC technology is preferred.

Our third ReFlexion on Grid-Forming Control Technology

It’s about how we feed the electricity into the grid

A ReFlexion of Dongsheng Yang, Assistant Professor at TU/e

Get insight into how we feed electricity into the grid and how Grid-forming control differs from the current method.

Our first ReFlexion on Solid State Transformers

When being less gives you more

A ReFlexion of Zian Qin, Assistant Professor at the TU Delft.

Get insight into the use of transformers and why voltages are increased and decreased in different parts of our utility grid.
