Rapid Control Prototyping enabling development of control for novel converter topologies and HVDC networks at Imperial College London OPAL-RT TECHNOLOGIES 1 The Control and Power research group at Imperial College London are interested in developing the technology to enable future electricity networks, including multi-terminal HVDC systems. Efficient and reliable transmission through HVDC requires low-loss AC-DC converters and effective and robust control strategies for both the converter and the network. A DC network is under construction including modular multilevel style converter topologies, allowing rapid control prototyping on representative scaled hardware demonstrators of HVDC converters and networks. This allows the testing an
