description <p dir="ltr">A flexible asynchronous AC link (FASAL) system is a technology that interconnects two<u> power system</u> networks operating at the same or different frequencies. The FASAL system is a newly developed technology; therefore, it requires a thorough investigation under different unbalanced <u>grid voltage</u> conditions for better behavioral understanding and appropriate future <u>controller design</u>. In this paper, the FASAL system is analyzed under various symmetrical and asymmetrical unbalanced grid voltage conditions. Moreover, the performance of the back-to-back <u>voltage source converter</u> (VSC) based HVDC link is also analyzed to establish its comparison with the FASAL system under the same conditions. The FASAL and VSC-HVDC systems are modeled in PSCAD/EMTDC software environment. The simulation results illustrate that the FASAL <u>system performance</u> is better under transient as well as steady-state conditions. Furthermore, the reduction in power at the receiving end side is also lesser in the FASAL system. For example, a 10% sag contributes only a 15% dip in power in the FASAL system, whereas VSC-HVDC reports a 30% power dip for the same sag condition.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Energy Reports<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.egyr.2021.01.028" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.egyr.2021.01.028</a></p>
