Abstract Wind power is still the most promising renewable energy in the year of 2013. The wind turbine system (WTS) started with a few tens of kilowatt power in the 1980s. Now, multi megawatt wind turbines are widely installed even up to 6–8 MW. There is a widespread use of wind turbines in the distribution networks and more and more wind power stations, acting as power plants, are connected directly to the transmission networks. As the grid penetration and power level of the wind turbines increase
05/03/2016 Abstract Wind power, as a kind of renewable energy, is widely used for electric power generation. Being clean and easily acquired, wind power generation has a bright future. The conversion between wind energy and electric power can be divided into two parts. The kinetic wind energy is converted into mechanical energy by the wind turbine first. Then the mechanical power is converted into electrical power by a generator. The more efficient the conversion is, the less wind power the generator loses
development of the wind power generation is rapidly maturing, with recognized reliability and affordability. Besides the low prices, the cost-stability of wind energy against the wildly fluctuating prices of fossil fuels is making it a very smart option for the consumers, independent power producers and corporations. This is clearly reflected in the growth of the global annual installed wind power as shown in Figur. After a slowdown in 2013, there is a 44 % increase in the wind power installation, which
Introduction: Wind turbines capture the energy of wind and transform it into kinetic energy that is then converted to electricity. Turbines are available in a range of sizes and designs and can either be free-standing, mounted on a building or integrated into a building structure (Pennycook, 2008). System types: There are basically two sorts of wind turbines: horizontal-axis design and vertical-axis design. Horizontal-axis wind turbines are the most common type used and can have various sizes

the hardware setup of DFIG system. It also shows experimental results and the performance of this system under different types of controllers. The experimental work is divided into three parts. The first part is emulating the wind turbine characteristic using PMSM. The second part is implementing the GSC connected to the grid and maintaining its DC-link voltage constant under different disturbances. The final part is controlling the DFIG to extract power from the wind emulator and transfer it to
Hybrid Energy system (HRES) combines two or more renewable energy sources used together to provide increased system efficiency as well as greater balance in energy supply. It becomes popular to remote area for power generation due to advances in renewable energy technologies and subsequent rise in prices of petroleum products. Hybrid energy system is an excellent solution for electrification of remote rural areas where the grid extension is difficult and not economical. [29] Such system incorporates

the wind. Wind is an energy source that humans have historically benefitted from to explore the world, prepare food, and pump water. These days we have implemented the use of giant turbines that allow the wind to turn their giant blades to generate electricity. To dive deeper into discovering the best way to harness this energy will require to look at past wind technologies, the advantages and problems with our current turbine designs, the new innovations and ground breaking designs. Wind has been
