| Wind energy conversion systems (WECS) are designed to convert the wind motion energy into mechanical energy, which provides the energy needed for generators to generate electrical energy. The wind energy conversion system consists of four parts, including wind turbines, generators, control systems and interface devices. In this paper, an overview of each part is given. The structure of the WECS is first described. Then, the types of wind turbines are expressed along with their production capacity and performance areas. Then, the types of induction generators and their application in WECS are mentioned. |
