We are convinced that HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) technology, solutions for energy transmission with direct current at high voltages, is a long-term sustainable solution. The technology is used to transmit energy over long distances and to connect power grids with minimal losses. In addition to energy transmission, HVDC technology also alleviates power quality issues and can contribute to the stability of connected grids. For offshore wind power or long distance submarine transmission, DC is the only realistic option for energy transmission
