The new formulation for the electrical modeling of the three-level converter combined with the new control strategy reveals the capability in mitigating the unbalancing between the capacitors bank voltages. The THD of the output current with the two-level converter and with the three-level converter have propensity to be decremented with …

As the demand for “green“ energy increases the offshore wind power industry is expanding at a rapid pace around the world. Design of Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines is a comprehensive reference which covers the design of foundations for offshore wind turbines. and includes examples and case studies. It provides …

Based on comparative study on different pole-slot number combinations and pole-arc coefficients for the 1.5MW directdriven PM wind generator. the following conclusions can be deduced: 1) The pole-slot number combination has significant effect on the positioning torque at no load. Choosing the fractional slot number per pole and per phase …

In this paper. the harmonic emissions of a 30 × ۶۰۰ kW WT SCIG wind farm are analyzed using field measurements to contribute to the understanding of wind farm harmonic behavior. The following conclusions can be drawn from the investigation. 1) Low-order characteristic harmonics are the dominant ones in the …

The EU has given the go-ahead for a deal between Norway’s KLP and Swedish pension fund AMF to buy the biggest wind power company in Sweden.

Now. the share of wind and solar energy in Kazakhstan’s general energy balance is 1 percent.

The wind sector has a fantastic opportunity to become a beacon of excellence in the development and dissemination of standards.

China will surpass its national cumulative wind power target of 210 GW which was set as part of the country’s Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for Wind Power.
