2 Getting more Power out of the Grid The Task: System Interconnection & Transmission Enhancement PTD H 1 MT/Re

3 Enhancement of Transmission Systems Extensions of Interconnected Systems Increased Power Exchange among the Interconnected Systems Transmission of large Power Blocks over long Distances * (Hydro Resources, Solar Energy) Renewable Energy Resources at favorable Locations * * by by use use of of HVDC // FACTS for for remote Infeed PTD H 1 MT/Re

4 HVDC: it forces Power to flow Fault-Current Blocking G ~ I1 V1 P V2 I2 G ~ Q1 α and γ Q2 L and C L and C Slow Functions Fast Functions Slow Functions Power & fast Voltage Control Fault-Current Blocking PTD H 1 MT/Re

5 LTT Light Triggered Thyristors The safest Valve Technology LTT: Technical & Economical Advantages 80 % less Electronic Components Less Electric Wiring & Fiber Optic Cables Reduced Spare Part Requirements Wafer-integrated Overvoltage Protection Thyristor Valve with Direct-Light Triggered 100 mm Thyristors with integrated Break-over Protection Maximum Reliability & Availability - Benefits of LTT PTD H 1 MT/Re

6 Advanced Power Electronic Components Direct Light-Triggered Thyristor (LTT) 80 % less Electronic Components Flame-retardant Valves to UL Standards* High Reliability Valve Group - Example Indoor for HVDC Module Thyristor * Underwrites Laboratories (US Standard for Flame Retardance Tests) PTD H 1 MT/Re

7 Advanced Power Electronic Components Direct Light-Triggered Thyristor (LTT) 80 % less Electronic Components Flame-retardant Valves to UL Standards* High Reliability Valve Group - Example Outdoor for FACTS Module Thyristor * Underwrites Laboratories (US Standard for Flame Retardance Tests) PTD H 1 MT/Re
