The growing integration of intermittent renewable sources like offshore wind energy increases the need for transferring electric energy over long distances, which may include sea crossings. One of the solutions available for bulk electric power transmission across large distances encompassing wide and deep sea is using HVDC submarine power cables. However, there are no standards or research related to the calculation of the continuous allowable current with various ocean conditions of a DC power cable that does not have an alternating magnetic field. In this study, assuming the typical two types of subsea cable models and two areas of the south coast and the west coast marine conditions, a continuous allowable current simulation of DC cables was performed. As a simulation result, the DC cable continuous allowable current find out the gradient reduction characteristics based on subsea base depth.

Recently, the biggest issue in the electricity industry is the increase in renewable energy, and various technologies are being developed to ensure the capacity of the power system. In addition, super-grids linking power systems are being pushed to utilize eco-friendly energy between countries and regions worldwide. The HVDC transmission technology is required to link the power network between regions with different characteristics of the power system such as frequency and voltage. Until now, Korea has applied HVDC transmission technology that connects mainland and Jeju Island with submarine cables. But, the HVDC transmission technology is still developing for long-distance high-capacity power transmission from power parks on the east coast to load-tight areas near the metropolitan area. Considering the high population density and mountainous domestic environment, it is pushing for commercialization of the design technology of the ${\pm}500kV$ Double Bipole with metallic return wire transmission line to transmit large-scale power of 8 GW using minimal right of ways. In this paper, the insulation characteristics were studied for the design of double-bipole transmission tower with metallic return wire, which is the first time in the world. And the air insulation characteristics resistant to the various overvoltage phenomena occurring on transmission lines were verified through a full-scale impulse voltage test.
