National Hybrid Electric Grid Upgrade
Sector: Power Transmission • Location: United States
Source: The Hill
A proposed program to upgrade the U.S. national electric grid by building a national, preferably buried, network of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) lines overlaying the existing alternating current (AC) network. The program also includes improving the transfer capacity of the existing AC network by converting to composite core conductors and installing grid-forming inverters to enhance real-tim
