Abstract
This paper presents the study results on integration of VSC HVDC and variable speed hydropower generation. Different types of variable speed hydropower generation solutions have been reviewed. Refined calculation on annually additional power generated and reliability assessment have been illustrated for the proposed solution based on real hydropower plant parameters. Advantages and challenges for this promising integration technology are presented.
