- beyondcows 6y agoWhat has changed between then and now? High voltage DC also works well for long distance transmission but is only preferable to AC at even higher voltages.
- blattimwind 6y agoHVDC works for linking grids and for very long distance transmission between few stations. It does not work well at all for distribution. Never did. Never will. Sorrynotsorry.
