Abstract:
A voltage source converter including a plurality of terminals, a plurality of switching elements, a plurality of energy storage devices connected between the plurality of terminals, and a controller. Each energy storage device stores and releases energy to provide a voltage, and the plurality of switching elements are arranged to be switchable to control flow of current through each energy storage device. The controller is programmed to operate in an energy regulation mode to regulate energy.

Claim (Index 17):
The voltage source converter according to  claim 1 , wherein the voltage source converter includes a plurality of converter limbs, the AC terminal of each converter limb for connection to a respective phase of a multi-phase AC network, at least one of the limb portions of each converter limb including a respective one of the plurality of valves, and the controller is programmed to operate in the energy regulation mode to:\n designate the energy storage device or at least one of the energy storage devices in at least one selected valve of one of the plurality of converter limbs as a or a respective first energy storage device, and designate the energy storage device or at least one of the energy storage devices in at least one selected valve of another of the plurality of converter limbs as a or a respective second energy storage device; and control the switching of the switching elements in the selected valves to force a common current to flow through the first and second energy storage devices so as to: transfer the stored buffer of energy from the or each second energy storage device to the or each first energy storage device; or transfer energy from the or each first energy storage device to the provided energy storage capacity of the or each second energy storage device.
