The global investment in power grids and cables are expected to overpass the investment in solar and wind power itself by 2050. Large-scale expansion of offshore power generation is introducing new challenges in power transmission in terms of reliability and efficiency. Grid complexity increases as interconnections within these power systems are expanding and the cost efficient HVDC technology has become increasingly more important for the long-distance transmission of offshore power to the onshore grid. The use of HVDC transmission technology offers numerous benefits in long-distance transmission, bulk electricity delivery, transmission costs and the environment. In the era of energy transition, further considerations need to be discussed for long-term expansion planning, new transmission standards, large offshore platforms, multipurpose interconnectors, super grids and other innovative topologies
3rd HVDC Offshore Power Transmission & Technology 2023 welcomes decision-makers from power transmission departments of leading Power Generation and TSOs in an exclusive closed-group and business-friendly environment for peer-to-peer networking, ample knowledge-sharing and learning opportunities in the highly evolving energy sector. This event will examine latest developments, challenges, opportunities and technologies of HVDC and grid technology to support the expansion of offshore power transmission.
