What is it about?
The proposed converters could offer all the attributes of the mixed cells modular converter but at lower capital cost (due to potential saving in insulations and control system in type 1 converter, and substantial saving in cell capacitance in type 2 converter).

Why is it important?
Reduction of capital cost, space requirement and power circuit and control complexities are essential as we move forward from overall economy and reliability of dc grid, including environmental impact
Perspectives
The type 2 version proposed hybrid converters is an example of the converter topologies to be pursued for realization of cost-effective and reliable multi-terminal HVDC grid
