High voltage direct current (HVDC) converter station refers to a specialized facility that forms the terminal component for an HVDC transmission line. It is designed for the efficient conversion of electrical power from one form to another, typically alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) or vice versa. The primary application of HVDC converter stations is facilitating power transmission between regions, countries, and continents. The need for efficient long-distance energy transmission with minimal energy loss propels investment in HVDC converter station installations. Growing urbanization and government initiatives to propel the adoption of renewable energy sources have resulted in increased investments in power infrastructure development. However, the substantial initial investment required for HVDC converter station installations may deter private entities from adopting this technology. Furthermore, the absence of standardized components and designs across various HVDC technologies may hinder interoperability between different systems. Moreover, efforts by major providers of HVDC converter stations to harmonize HVDC design can propel standardization of the converter stations and increase the rate of adoption among end users. R&D initiatives and funding to support continued advancements and innovations in converter technologies can expand the applications of the HVDC converter stations. Furthermore, offshore wind installations are gaining traction due to their large-scale generation potential, and HVDC technology is a feasible solution for connecting these offshore installations to onshore grids.
