Selection of an IGCT for multilevel converters dedicated to high‐voltage direct current grid connection of offshore wind‐farms

Abstract Grid connection of remote offshore wind‐parks uses high‐voltage direct current technology and in order to reduce costs and losses and maximise profitability, semiconductor power losses must be minimised. To properly choose the semiconductors, it is necessary to estimate their losses for a l...
