Power Electronics for Modern Wind Turbines

The introduction of power electronics is changing the basic characteristic of wind turbines from being an energy source to be an active power source. With prices of power electronic devices falling, these solutions become more and more attractive.Power Electronics for Modern Wind Turbines introduce the electrical aspects of modern wind generation systems, including modern power electronics and converters, electric generation and conversion systems for both fixed speed and variable speed systems, control techniques for wind turbines, configurations of wind farms, and the issues of integrating wind turbines into power systems.Blaabjerg, Frede is the author of 'Power Electronics for Modern Wind Turbines ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781598290325 and ISBN 1598290320.
