- nikisweeting 6y agoIf anyone is curious about this HVDC line and the Quebec grid in general I gave a small talk about it ;) https://github.com/pirate/quebec-power-grid-talk https://github.com/pirate/quebec-power-grid-talk It's one of the only multi-terminal HVDC lines in the world, most of the others are just point-to-point. They also literally short out the power lines with DC to warm them up and melt the ice off during ice storms, pretty crazy stuff.
