Abstract

The invention discloses a sub-module redundancy configuration method and system of a modular multilevel converter. The method comprises the following steps: determining the number of fault sub-modulesin the modular multilevel converter; calculating and acquiring a capacitance reference voltage of the sub-modules of the modular multilevel converter based on the number of the fault sub-modules; obtaining a target output voltage of an upper bridge arm and a target output voltage of a lower bridge arm of the modular multilevel converter; and determining the number of sub-modules input by the upper bridge arm by utilizing the capacitance reference voltage and the target output voltage of the upper bridge arm, and determining the number of sub-modules input by the lower bridge arm by utilizingthe capacitance reference voltage and the target output voltage of the lower bridge arm. In the invention, a maximum voltage output capability is reserved by increasing a capacitor voltage so that thesystem operates stably, and a fault ride-through capability is enhanced; and loss of a converter valve is reduced, redundant modules are fully utilized, a harmonic content of an output voltage is reduced, and operation performance of the modular multilevel converter is optimized.
