What is HDVC?

The steep rise in demand for power in China’s industrial centers means that huge amounts of electricity have to be conveyed over distances of one thousand kilometers and more. HVDC transmission is the only expedient method, in terms of both technology and efficiency. Increase of HVDC line voltage is expected to increase to
+/- 800kV DC due to Chinas need for even longer lines and more bulk transmission demand. High-voltage direct-current transmission is the only technically and economically viable solution. China is the fastest growing market in the field of power transmission and distribution and will become the world’s largest single market for HVDC transmission technology over the next 20 to 30 years. Siemens PTD is a leading supplier of this technology.
