Inhalt:
A new modular converter system based on press-pack IEGT (PPI) modules has been developed and recently put into commercially use, to complement and extend GE Power Conversion’s range of medium voltage products. The submodules of the new 36 kV MMC system benefit from the proven and robust PPI technology of the MV7000 range of products. The fully modular design and a new control architecture allow high flexibility for adaptions on special customer requirements, in a power range up to and above 100 MVA. The new design, performance and application benefits are summarized.
