Power electronics in wind generation systems
This Review discusses the current capabilities and challenges facing different power electronic technologies in wind generation systems from single turbines to the system level. Several
Wind power generation is power generation that converts wind energy into electric energy. The wind generating set absorbs wind energy with a specially designed blade and converts wind energy to mechanical energy, which further drives the generator rotating and realizes conversion of wind energy to electric energy.
Wind power is a form of energy conversion in which turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy that can be used for power. Wind power is considered a form of renewable energy. Modern commercial wind turbines produce electricity by using rotational energy to drive a generator.
The installation produces electricity by collecting and transforming wind power into rotational mechanical energy to drive a generating unit. Wind power generation technology is now relatively mature, with annual generation amounting to 640 TWh, accounting for less than 3% of the world's total energy consumption.
In wind generation systems, the wind turbine, the electrical generator and the grid-interfaced converters are three key components that have been developed in the past 30 years 32, 33. The turbine converts wind energy into mechanical energy.
