Abstract

Provided is a control method for a parallel MMC unit of a LCC-MMC hybrid cascade converter station. The control strategy includes: 1) numbering all MMC units connected in parallel in a MMC valve manifold; (2) for a MMC unit using a constant direct-current voltage control manner, calculating a direct-current instruction value of the MMC unit according to a direct-current measurement value; (3) for a MMC unit using a constant active power control manner, calculating an active power instruction value of the MMC unit according to the rated capacity of the MMC unit and a direct-current instruction value of a system rectifier station; (4) for the MMC unit using the constant direct-current voltage control manner, correcting a direct-current voltage instruction value of the MMC unit by using the direct-current instruction value and the direct-current measurement value, and controlling the MMC unit according to the corrected direct-current voltage instruction value.
