DC compact switchgear (DC CS)
for 320 kV
siemens.com/energy
The changing generation and load structure in existing
power grids requires increased transmission capacity.
­Longer transmission distances and increased loading
tend to reduce the AC grid’s static and dynamic stability.
To amend this, HVDC systems can be integrated into
­existing AC grids to provide the required transmission
­capacity and at the same time increase grid stability.
A new dimension
in compactness
•space-saving design
What is more, the global trend towards decarbonization
of power generation calls for an increased use of renewable
energy sources (RES). While RES like offshore wind are
typically found at great distances from the load centers,
HVDC provides an effective (and in some cases the only)
technical solution for power transmission.
•reduction of DC switchyard
in converter stations up to 95%
The compact 320 kV DC switchgear DC CS is needed for
HVDC cable connections to remote offshore wind farms
as well as for onshore HVDC projects. Thanks to its com­
pact design, the DC CS helps to reduce the HVDC system’s
space requirements. Hence it is predestinated for appli­
cations where space is limited or expensive, e.g. offshore
HVDC platforms for remote windfarms as well as close
to city centers. Using the DC CS outdoors even in rough
climates adds to this effect. In the near future, DC com­
pact switchgear and transmission solutions facilitate the
realization of multi-terminal arrangements or DC grids,
backing up the existing AC networks.
