The high voltage direct current (HVDC) converter stations will provide an additional 200 megawatt (MW) of power to the island, enough to provide electricity to 500,000 homes.

The UHVDC utilises direct current (DC) electricity at extremely high voltages that can have as much as 40% lower losses than an equivalent conventional AC (alternating current) system, saving up to 1.2m tons of CO2 emissions per year.

(2) HVDC: High Voltage Direct Current is a technology mainly for transmitting power between two power systems.

The Matiari-Lahore High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission line project will be completed as per the plan, said a spokesman of the PPIB here.

The 878km long transmission line is part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and is the country's first project based on direct current (DC).

PV side DC/DC boost converter operates using Perturb and Observe (P&O) based Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique [13-14] whereas grid side inverter GS-VSC employs the proposed PIPSO based optimal direct current vector control.

Before you chicken out of the thought of electricity passing through yourbrain, let us tell you that the headset uses transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) that uses very weak direct current delivered via electrodes for neuro stimulation.

The project consists of photovoltaic cells that convert solar light into direct current, as well as inverters that convert direct current into alternate current.

Summary: Lahore [Pakistan], November 13 (ANI): A leading Chinese company has drastically slowed down work on USD 2 billion 660kV high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission line from Lahore to Matiari.

The trailer for the upcoming movie 'The Current War' shows Cumberbatch as the American inventor Thomas Edison, fighting to prove that direct current, and not Nikola Tesla's alternating current, is the way to bring electricity into every home in the United States.

Although mortality rates decrease dramatically with effective defibrillation via direct current shock, one-third of STEMI patients die because of primary ventricular fibrillation within the first 2 hours after the onset of symptoms.

Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasion brain stimulation, which has been suggested as a safe and promising treatment for auditory hallucinations, however, no systematic review has been conducted to evaluate the effects of tDCS on auditory hallucinations (AH).

Mitsubishi Electric Corporation has launched a newly branded lineup, D-SMiree Diamond-Smart Medium Voltage Direct Current Distribution Network System for Innovative Reliable Economical Ecology for medium- and low-voltage direct-current (MV/LV DC) distribution systems of voltages 1,500V DC and below.
