The press release following the first Best Paths Special Stakeholder Workshop on HVDC links in offshore wind farms can be downloaded here.

This report describes the first demonstrator (Demo 1) for the BestPaths project. The demonstrator replicates in a laboratory scale an offshore wind farm connected to a multi-terminal HVDC (MTDC) transmission system to identify potential interoperability issues.

MATLAB/Simulink toolbox developed by the Demo 1 partners for the grid connection of OWFs using MTDC networks. This toolbox is made of the necessary building blocks of the electrical components and their initialisation scripts. A user manual can be downloaded here.

This user manual describes the MATLAB/Simulink toolbox developed by the Demo 1 partners  for the grid connection of OWFs using MTDC networks. The toolbox is made of the necessary building blocks of the electrical components and their initialisation scripts.

To demonstrate the capabilities of the toolbox, this manual presents two case studies. A technical information sheet is also attached in the Appendix to summarise the architecture, control parameters and interface layout of each simulation block.

Here you can find the press release from the project launch, in October 2014.
