Siemens Energy to supply Germany's SuedLink with HVDC technology

Wind Industry Profile of

Important project progress for Germany’s largest energy infrastructure project / Siemens Energy’s high-voltage direct current technology will enable low-loss transport of up to 2 gigawatts over more than 700 kilometers

Fluctuating feed-in from renewable energy plants, the new spatial distribution of power generation, and rising energy demand: The power grids of the future will face a wide range of challenges that require a rapid expansion of the infrastructure. A total of 7,500 kilometers will have to be optimized, strengthened, or newly built in the German transmission network over the next few years. High-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission links are playing a key role here, such as SuedLink, the new wind power line, that will enable low-loss energy transport over long... ...
