With the large-scale integration of renewable energy devices into the power grid, the voltage stability of the renewable energy base is becoming increasingly weak, and the problem of transient overvoltage is becoming increasingly severe. Grid-forming (GFM) converters can provide strong voltage support. When GFM converters are paralleled with grid-following (GFL) converters, they can effectively reduce transient overvoltage. However, hybrid systems involve many parameters and exhibit complex dynamics, making assessment of transient overvoltage difficult. To address this, this paper first uses Thevenin’s theorem to reduce the renewable transmission system to an equivalent model. Next, the voltage assessment of the hybrid system is analyzed across the pre-fault, mid-fault, and post-fault stages of a short-circuit fault. Then, based on the characteristics of a phase-locked loop (PLL), this paper innovatively derives an assessment method for transient overvoltage at the common coupling point (PCC) under different PLL stability conditions. Additionally, the influence of GFL converter parameters, GFM converter parameters, the GFM capacity ratio on transient overvoltage, and the external system reactance are analyzed. Finally, the proposed evaluation method and factor analysis are validated through electromechanical transient simulation using the simulation software STEPS v2.2.0.
