Renewable Electricity Generating Capacity Worldwide
 Global renewable electricity installations (excluding hydropower) have more than tripled from 2000–2009.
 Wind and solar energy are the fastest growing renewable energy technologies worldwide. Wind and solar PV generation grew by a factor of more than 14 between 2000 and 2009.
 In 2009, Germany led the world in cumulative solar PV installed capacity. The United States leads the world in wind, geothermal, biomass, and CSP installed capacity.

Lightning impact on HVDC overhead transmission lines
HVDC typical configuration
The designer of a power system needs to know the flashover rate of an overhead power line for a selected insulation level to meet the reliability criteria set for the system.
The lightning flashover rate (lightning performance of the line) is the sum of:
direct strikes flashover rate;
nearby strikes flashover rate (disregarded in view of TL CFO);
flashover rate from failures of protective equipment.
Only first strokes of negative downward flashes are generally taken into account in lightning performance studies.
To predict the lightning performance one needs the knowledge of:
the lightning activity (the ground flash density Ng (fl/km2/yr));
the exposure to lightning;
lightning consequences.
Exposure (i.e. lightning incidence)
The models applied to calculate lightning incidence on transmission lines are based on consideration of the physical processes involved during the final stages of progression of a charged downward lightning leader (usually assumed negative) in its approach to the earth, or toward structures such as a line or transmission tower.
These models, based on downward leader approach, could be divided into:
conventional models  electrogeometric model;
more recent models leader progression model (LPM).
Conventional electrogeometric model: basic concept
Single conductor overhead line of a given height h:
 rc: striking distances to a phase conductor;
direct stroke
 rg: striking distances to ground;
 dl: lateral attractive distance of the line

Electric potential iso‐surfaces associated to a downward leader corresponding to a peak current of 20 kA. Downward leader at 360 m from the ground. Inception conditions for the formation of the upward leader from the earthed structure have not yet been reached.
Lightning leader approaching ground: downward motion unperturbed unless critical field conditions develop  juncture with the nearby tower, called final jump.
For each electric field streamline connecting the two leaders it has determined whether the electric field exceeds the value of 500 kV/m along the overall streamline length.
Peak current of 20 kA located at 23 m from the 30 m high earthed
structure: electric field iso‐surfaces and streamlines.
Shielding failure: basic concept
For a specific value of stroke current, arcs of radii rc are drawn from the phase conductors and from the shield wires with the horizontal line at a distance rg from the earth. A shielding failure is a stroke that terminates on a phase conductor, in spite of the presence of overhead ground wires. The flash collection rate is:
Dc
Dg

N s  2 N g L [ Dg ( I )  Dc ( I )] f ( I )dI

I min
Integrating only the exposure area of the phase conductors, we obtain the shielding failure rate (SFR)
rc
I max
SFR  2 N g L  Dc f I dI

Where:
 Imin is the minimum lightning current (2 or 3 kA);
 Imax is the maximum current at and above which
no stroke will terminate on the phase conductor.
rg
Shielding failure flashover rate: SFFOR
If the voltage E is set to the CFO, negative polarity, then the critical current Ic, at and above which flashover occurs.
The initial condition of the HVDC could be taken into account into the estimation of Ic.
Therefore SFFOR is:
SFFOR  2N g L

Shielding failure on HVDC: experimental observations

Performance of Â±500 kV HVDC Transmission Lines”, 2009 Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC 2009).
Remark: it seems that the applied DC voltage on the polar conductor, as well as its
polarity, plays a role into the upward streamer inception criterion and, therefore, into the
attachment process.
Back flashover: basic concepts
When lightning strikes the tower (or the OHGWs), the current on the tower and ground impedances causes the rise of the tower voltage. A small fraction of the tower and shield wires voltage is induced in the phase conductors due to the electromagnetic coupling, nevertheless the tower and shield wires voltage becomes greater then phase conductors voltage. If the voltage exceeds the line CFO, flashover occurs called back flash or back flashover and the corresponding minimum lightning current that produces such a flashover is called critical current.
The term “back” refers to the fact that the highest voltage is on a part of the power system normally at ground potential.
Estimation of the backflash rate
Use of the Electromagnetic Transient Program
The calculation of the critical current Ic by means of EMTP‐like programs allows to take in account:
 waveshape of the current source;
 flashover criteria in the form of volt‐time characteristics;
 transmission line models including all line conductors (em‐coupling);
 representation of the soil ionization;
 frequency dependent grounding models;
 surge arresters;
 representation of all the power system components;
For HVDC:
For HVDC:

conductors potential (pre‐lightning DC voltage status);
conductors potential (pre‐lightning DC voltage status);

frequency dependency of input impedance of HVDC power electronics.
frequency dependency of input impedance of HVDC power electronics.
Calculation of the backflashover rate (BFR)
The BFR is the probability of exceeding the critical current multiplied by the number of flashes to the line NL. However, since the crest voltage and the CFO are both functions of the time‐to‐crest tf of the lightning current, the critical current previously determined is variable. Therefore, the BFR considering all the possible time‐to‐crest values is:

BFR  0.6N L  

 
Where f(I/tf) is the conditional probability density function of the stroke current given the time‐to‐crest and f(tf) is the probability function of the time‐to‐crest.
Note: in order to obtain the BFR for strokes to the tower and stroke and to the spans, the BFR obtained for strokes to the tower is multiplied by a coefficient, equal to 0.6 [Hileman, 1999]
