The invention discloses a mixed bipolar DC
transmission system. The
system comprises a rectification converter
station and an inversion converter
station which are connected through a DC
transmission line, wherein the rectification converter
station is formed by two
thyristor converters through serial connection, and the serial connection node is grounded; and the inversion converter station is formed by two modular multilevel
converters (MMCs) through serial connection, the serial connection node is grounded, and positive and negative ends after serial connection are connected with one-way connection power devices. The
system has the advantages of low cost and loss, high reliability and the like of the existing
thyristor converter, flexible control of the MMCs, low
harmonic, active-reactive power decoupling control, low dependence on an
alternating current system and the like; and the system is divided into positive and negative poles, so that operating reliability is strengthened, and the power devices provided with the one-way connection capacity and additionally arranged at outlets of inverters can effectively
handle DC faults. The system is suitable for occasions such as high-power long-distance high-
voltage DC transmission and island current delivery, provided with broad development space, and worthy of being popularized vigorously.
