In particular, focus is on key technical, economic, and environmental features of VSC-HVDC. A techno-economic analysis on a European priority interconnection project (i.e. the planned tie line Poland-Lithuania) is undertaken, so as to compare the economic and environmental sustainability of an investment in VSC-HVDC with other options. }, title = {Sustainability Analysis of VSC-HVDC in the Liberalised European Power System - a Practical Case}, url = {http://ewh.ieee.org/conf/powertech/2009/}, volume = {}, number = {}, journal = {}, pages = {1-7}, issn = {}, publisher = {IEEE}, doi = {} }
