  • Abstract
    This paper provides a review of the development of MMC by summarizing the proper modulation methods and the application fields compared with the common ones applied in the multi-level converters. Also the principle of energy equilibrium is presented during noticeable parameter design process. Representatives are shown in the paper of the MMC applications made by ABB, Siemens and China Electric Power Research Institute since 2007 the concept of MMC advanced.
