Thyristors have dominated this application for many decades. Nowadays thyristors as well as IGBTs are used in HVDC systems and FACTS to fulfill different needs.

Infineon’s New 4.5kV IHV IGBT

2:43

The new 4.5kV IGBT modules are optimized for use in traction drives and high-voltage DC transmission systems.

Thanks to the elevated current density of these devices which incorporate the latest IGBT3/EC3 chips, more power can be transmitted and higher output can be achieved without altering the existing inverter design or needing a more powerful cooling.
