Übertragungswegs

Ubertragungswegs is a term used in the context of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems. Directly translated from German, it means "transfer route" or "path of transmission". In the context of HVDC transmission, the term refers to the path or route through which DC power is transmitted over long distances without significant loss of energy.

In HVDC systems, the power is transmitted from one point to another using two conductors, known as the positive pole and the negative pole, which are insulated from each other and from the ground. The two poles are installed in a way that one is above or to the side of the other to minimize inductive and capacitive losses.

The Übertragungswegs in HVDC systems can be either underground or underwater. Underground transmission cables are often used for shorter distances, while underwater cables are used for longer distances, such as across seas or oceans. The choice of cable type depends on the terrain, terrain conditions, and technical requirements of the transmission line.

Research on Übertragungswegs in HVDC systems is continually advancing with the goal of increasing efficiency and reducing energy losses. Advances in insulation materials, design, and construction techniques are being explored to enable the use of HVDC transmission lines in a wider range of applications, including long-distance energy transmission between power plants and consumers.

In recent years, the use of HVDC transmission systems has become more widespread, particularly in regions with slow or non-existent grid infrastructure. Countries with ambitious renewable energy targets, such as those in Europe and Asia, are turning to HVDC transmission systems as part of their electricity infrastructure development plans.
