description Abstract Offshore wind farm (OWF) is considered as a perfect zero‐carbon energy source for the future power system. However, the growing offshore distance and water depth of OWF make the OWF HVDC transmission technique a more promising solution than HVAC due to higher cost‐efficiency and reliability. In this paper, the current situation of OWF‐HVDC projects is introduced at first. Then, novel converter topologies with the higher power density and cost‐efficiency are presented, including the hybrid modular multilevel converter (MMC), alternative arm converter (AAC), and diode rectifier (DR). Next, several OWF HVDC transmission system topologies are introduced, including terminal‐hybrid, station‐hybrid and all‐DC delivered system. Furthermore, the key technologies for OWF HVDC operation and control are summarized, including grid‐forming control strategy for offshore wind turbines, stability analysis method, corresponding stability enhancement measures and frequency support control strategies. Additionally, the fault ride‐through and protection strategies for different fault locations have been presented. Finally, the main conclusions and prospects for OWF HVDC are summarized.
