HVDC e integración de Energía Eólica en la ejecución de proyectos en Latinoamérica

Abstract

HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) transmission lines have gained significant importance due to the growing use of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar photovoltaic power. This is because the energy generated from these sources is in direct current, making the transportation of energy via DC theoretically more feasible. In recent decades, technological advancements have enabled the low-cost transmission of DC energy through overhead, underground, and submarine lines, providing a viable solution to global energy supply challenges. In Latin America, only a few countries have adopted this transmission method. Consequently, there is a need to assess the feasibility of new projects in other regions to integrate the energy interconnected system with wind power using HVDC lines.
