High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC)

Solutions that sustain power superhighways

Our team has provided engineering services representing over 100,000 megawatts (MW) of the world’s planned or installed capacity of high voltage direct current (HVDC) projects.

We have supported numerous clients with HVDC owner’s engineer or specialist technical advisory services. Our team keeps up to date on state-of-the-art developments in the industry and works closely with international organizations that set standards, including CIGRE (International Council on Large Electric Systems) and the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).

Our specialist HVDC services are augmented by almost 60 years of experience with high voltage substation, transmission, and distribution system experience—including overhead lines and underground and submarine cables.

Experience from around the globe

Our project team has unsurpassed experience with major HVDC voltage source converter (VSC) and line commutated converter (LCC) projects around the world. We possess considerable knowledge and understanding of the technical capabilities and experience of all HVDC converter station manufacturers.
