    An Overview Of Photovoltaic Power Plant (PV) Connection To HVDC Grid
    (IEEE, 2023) Nedjem Eddine Benchouia; Abdelghani GUECHI; Mohammed SAAIDIA
    Solar energy is considered one of the most important alternative and renewable energies for the production of electricity so solar power plants work to produce direct current, which is then converted into alternating current through DC-AC converters and linked to power transmission networks of alternating current. But since most of the large solar PV plants are built in areas far from the load, the world is moving today to transfer power directly from solar panels to high voltage HVDC grid, due to the advantages that HVDC provides such as lower transmission loss, low cost and higher efficiency compared to HVAC. In this paper, we present an overview of recent studies dealing with Photovoltaic Power Plant Connections to HVDC Grid and the comparison between these systems.

    Electricity transportation using HVDC technology for Algerian southern sun power plants
    (2023-08-01) Nedjem Eddine Benchouia; Mohammed SAAIDIA; Abdelghani GUECHI
    Algeria is worldly known as one of the big producers and exporters of fossil fuels. However, by developing an adequate energy policy, it could become one of the great sun power (SP) producers and exporters. Indeed with almost 2 million Km2 sunny superficies, the country detains enormous SP energetic potential funds. However, eventual powerful SP plants deployment could be done far to the southern Algerian desert which makes HVDC technology the best candidate for the transmission of produced electricity towards the north region where are the main industrial poles and the most populated regions for local consumption and eventually farther to the north for electricity exportation to the European countries. Theprospection work presented hereafter is a study on the feasibility of using HVDC technology for such possible projects according to country’s existingmeans and topographical and environmental characteristics.
