  • Abstract
    This paper describes the aims and the methodology of a major collaborative research project between the University of Queensland and Australian and Swedish industry partners, including ABB Corporate Research (Sweden), Alstom Power (Sweden and Australia), PowerLink Queensland, Stanwell Corporation, C S Energy and Tarong Energy. The project investigates the likely benefits of significance to the Queensland system, which will arise from the optimisation of the new Powerformer technology for the generation of electricity at transmission or sub-transmission voltages, i.e. without step-up transformers
