Abstract
A method for controlling power flow within a multi-terminal DC power transmission system including two or more converter stations and the corresponding multi-terminal DC power transmission system are provided. The method includes the steps of: controlling the power flow to a steady state reference operating point for operating points within a control dead band defined for each respective converter station, and controlling the power flow by means of droop control in at least one of the converter stations upon detection of exceeding of an end point of one or more of the control dead bands.
