A voltage source converter (10a) is used in high voltage direct current power transmission and reactive power compensation. The voltage source converter (10a) comprises first and second DC terminals (12, 14) for connection in use to a DC network (20), three phase elements (16) and at least one auxiliary converter (18) connected between the first and second DC terminals (12, 14), each phase element (16) including a plurality of primary switching elements (22) and at least one AC terminal (24) for connection in use to a respective phase of a multiphase AC network (26), the plurality of primary switching elements (22) being controllable in use to facilitate power conversion between the AC and DC networks (26, 20), the or each auxiliary converter (18) being operable in use to act as a waveform synthesizer to modify a first DC voltage presented to the DC network (20) so as to minimise ripple in the DC voltage. |
