inverting high voltage

Hi to all !This is just teoreticly presented problem, it has nothing to do withreal applikation, but i hope that i can learn something from this idea:Let's say i have some DC source ( something like battery ) with:Voltage: 500 VAmperage: 0,5 AGoal: to power some AC 500 - 1 KW devicePower time: undefined---------------------------------------------------------------------------1.) if i would convert 500 DCV to 220 ACV ( and increase the amperage), would it be possible to use this in some real applikation ?.2.) The same question like above but with 1kV DC and 1A DC.3.) when you make such design, what is better, high voltage or highamperage ?----------------------------------------------------------------------------Basicly i want to find out what conversion type would be better to use,so i can use this then in real app.Thank you for your time!

my mistake. I had been told the new pole installed during the upgrade used thyristors.

Fascinating read, that. ye gods, it would be *SO TRIVIAL* to seriously snot our grid, that report is downright scary.

Could be. I didn't study it all that carefully. The original system is about

30 years old. I remember when they used to shut all the electricity off in the N Island, at midnight. It was amazing to go the the S Island and find it still on then.
