Light and robust cable design for long distance power transmission
HVDC Light Cables with HVDC Light Converters feature:
- Power transmission up to 1000 MW over long distances
- Reactive power control and stability in both connected networks
- Power reversal without interruption
- Can start black networks
The HVDC Light Cables are light, strong and robust and therefore particularly well suited for adverse laying conditions.
The HVDC Light cable between Victoria and South Australia, Murray Link, is the world´s longest land cable with a length of 2x180 km.
ABB has manufacturing and project management capacity to handle the biggest HVDC projects.
