This technology allows the flexible interconnection of multiple HVDC lines, so-called DC-Hub projects. Following this approach, the 4GTSOs are now aiming to take the next step in advancing the technology by transitioning from a single-vendor to a multi-vendor setup. As an initial step, the 4GTSOs intend to conduct a gap analysis as part of this market consultation to identify key blocking points related to this transition and to gather the market’s perspective. To this end, the 4GTSOs have developed a structured questionnaire.
