Voltage-source-converter-based multi-terminal high voltage direct current (MTDC) networks are extensively recognized as a viable solution for meeting the increasing demand of electrical energy and escalating penetration of renewable energy sources. DC faults are major limitations to the development of MTDC networks. The analysis of variable constraints has become mandatory in order to develop a reliable protection scheme. This paper contributes in assessing the propagation delay with the analytical approximation in MTDC networks. The propagation delay is analyzed in the time domain by taking only the forward traveling wave into account and considering the initial voltage step of magnitude at the fault position. Numerous simulations were carried out for different parameters and arrangements in Power System Computer Aided Design (PSCAD) to explore the proposed expressions. The results accurately depicted the time development of fault current. The results obtained from the real-time digital simulator (RTDS) confirmed that the proposed approach is capable of evaluating propagation delay in MTDC networks. Moreover, the influence of fault resistance is also taken into account for investigating its effect on the system parameters.

With the development of large-scale new energy, the wind–thermal bundled system transmitted via high-voltage direct current (HVDC) has become the main method to solve the problem of wind power consumption. At the same time, the problem of subsynchronous oscillation among wind power generators, high-voltage direct current (HVDC), and synchronous generators (SGs) has become increasingly prominent. According to the dynamic interaction among doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs), HVDC, and SGs, a linearization model of DFIGs and SGs transmitted via HVDC is established, and the influence of the electromagnetic transient of wind turbines and HVDC on the electromechanical transient processes of SGs is studied. Using the method of additional excitation signal injection, the influence of the main factors of DFIG on the damping characteristics of each torsional mode of SG is analyzed, including control parameters and operation conditions when the capacity of HVDC is fixed. The mechanism of the negative damping torsional of SGs is identified. A time-domain simulation model is built in Electromagnetic Transients including DC/Power Systems Computer Aided Design (EMTDC/PSCAD) to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.

In recent years, many applications have been developed for the integration of renewable energy sources (RES) into the grid in order to satisfy the demand requirement of a clean and reliable electricity generation. Increasing the number of RES creates uncertainty in load and power supply generation, which also presents an additional strain on the system. These uncertainties will affect the voltage and frequency variation, stability, protection, and safety issues at fault levels. RES present non-linear characteristics, which requires effective coordination control methods. This paper presents the stability issues and solutions associated with the integration of RES within the grid.
