Alstom Grid is investing 25M€ in R&D on HVDC over the 3-year plan period 2011-2014. A significant part of this R&D expenditure is related to developing its next generation of power electronics for LCC & VSC applications. At present, all of Alstom's HVDC systems are based on the H400 valve of some 10 years vintage. The development plan is to replace this with the new H450 power electronics module with alternate application offerings in the form of the state of the art VSC converter technology.
The power electronics development programme therefore includes two parallel work streams:
A bottom -up redesign of the LCC power electronics, designated H450/H460 to be offered in applications from MVDC back-to-back applications to to UHVDC transmission applications providing improvements in valve hall utilization, cost, weight, maintainability & optimised performance.
Industrialization of the VSC converter technology for commercial offering and further development of optimized topologies for future ongoing product enhancement.
The candidate will be responsible for supporting the functional design of the converter power electronics and fully responsible (under the supervision of the Valve Development Manager) for the mechanical design and validation of the power electronics to enable the safe, reliable and efficient operation of the converter electronics up to 1100kV, 10 GW capability.
In addition the candidate will be expected to co-operate with Alstom Grid's other Power Electronics Activities: Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) and Special Power Supplies (SPS) in developing innovative cutting edge technologies with potential synergies throughout the group.
