contents High-voltage direct current (HVDC) technology has played a crucial role for long-distance transmission of renewable power generation. However, the integration of large-capacity HVDC lines introduces significant frequency security challenges during HVDC fault emergencies. This paper proposes an emergency-aware and frequency-constrained HVDC planning method to optimize the capacity of inter-area HVDC tie-lines in a multi-area asynchronously interconnected grid. Firstly, a coordinated emergency frequency control scheme is proposed to allocate the emergency control resources during HVDC faults. Then, an enhanced system frequency response model integrating event-driven emergency frequency control is developed and a weighted oblique decision tree approach is employed to extract frequency nadir security constraints. The proposed planning model considers all potential HVDC fault emergencies while treating candidate HVDC capacities as decision variables. Simulation results demonstrate superior performance in balancing economic efficiency with frequency security requirements, providing a practical solution for inter-area HVDC planning.
