Abstract :The importance of grid impact studies of wind power integration rises with the rapid increase in the installed wind power capacity. Offshore wind power technology offers concentrated high wind power generation in high wind speed regions away from residential areas and land restrictions. Transferring a high amount of power for long distances requires a robust transmission system which can ensure stable operation with minimal possible losses. Voltage source converter - high voltage direct current insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(VSC-HVDC); technology has proved to be a promising solution for the connection of large offshore wind farms This paper presents and gives comparison t he grid code requirements to support VSC-HVDC connected offshore wind farms for different countries.
