AC/DC parallel transmission is a critical approach for large-scale centralized transmission. Existing assessments of power transfer capability in AC/DC corridors rarely incorporate comprehensive security and stability constraints, potentially leading to overestimated results. This paper investigates a grid-forming renewable energy system integrated via AC/DC parallel transmission. First, the transmission section’s power transfer limit under N-1 static security constraints is determined. Subsequently, analytical conditions satisfying synchronization and frequency stability constraints are derived using the equal area criterion and frequency security indices, revealing the impacts of AC/DC power allocation and system parameters on transfer capability. Finally, by integrating static security, synchronization stability, and frequency stability constraints, an operational region for secure AC/DC power dispatch is established. Based on this region, an optimal power allocation scheme maximizing the corridor’s transfer capability is proposed. The theoretical framework and methodology enhance system transfer capacity while ensuring AC/DC parallel transmission security, with case studies validating the theory’s correctness and method’s effectiveness.
