One of these solutions might be a bulk power transmission network at extra high voltages based on direct current. Currently, high voltage direct current (HV DC) transmission has been only realized in point-to-point systems and back-to-back arrangements. Thus, the next logical step in this development would be an HV DC network. In principle, it might have certain advantages over a conventional high voltage AC system, as it could be less closely meshed covering larger areas and transmit higher electric power with lower losses. However, no well-grounded investigations concerning possible layout and operation of an HV DC network are publicly available. Experience from the HV DC lines does not allow to make substantial conclusions regarding the requirements for an HV DC network. Therefore, some basic questions on the operation of an HV DC network need to be answered mainly from systems simulations.}, subject = {HVDC; Power transmission; Transient process; Energy system; High voltage; HG{\"U}; Energie{\"u}bertragung; {\"U}bergangsprozess; Energiesystem; Hochspannung; Elektrisches Energiesystem; Hochspannungsgleichstrom{\"u}bertragung}, language = {en} }
