Abstract
Emerging countries like India, China suffer a huge problem of power crisis. The main reason for this is, power evacuation. The inability of bulk power evacuation with the present mode of transmission (HVAC & HVDC) leads us to a concept called B2B segmented AC transmission. B2B segmented AC transmission consists of a rectifier and inverter unit by using IGBT. With the advent of advanced power electronics devices, the authors are able to reduce the size and complexity of converters with increase in power ratings. By using this method the limitation of HVDC can be overcome which makes us to evacuate bulk power to longer distance with less loses. In this paper they use IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) as B2B converter for transmission lines used to transmit large blocks of energy from long distance generating plants or to connect areas of large th power system. Taking a real time problem published in The New Indian Express on July 20 ,2011 which indicates power evacuation problem existing in Tamilnadu wind power sector, the authors present this paper.

ALU is an essential building piece of the focal preparing unit of a PC. The power, devoured by the ALU has a direct effect on the power disseminated from the processor. Thus, a plan is required to execute the ...
