To Capture the Wind

Robust control of the variable speed wind turbines in the presence of uncertainties: A comparison between H∞ and PID controllers

“…Also, it must be able to prevent the high mechanical loads which may damage the components' lifetime. Nowadays, due to the current trends toward the implementation of larger wind turbines with lighter and more flexible components, this concern is getting more important [9,29,49]. In this paper, two controllers including a classical PID and robust H ∞ controllers are developed for the control objectives in regulation and tracking problem.…”

Spinning reserve quantification by a stochastic–probabilistic scheme for smart power systems with high wind penetration

“…(2) and (3) expose that the power generated or absorbed by the storage device is limited when working in the producing or storing mode. Eq.…”

“…According to [1] the contribution of wind generation will reach 20% of the total energy of the U.S in 2030. This penetration of wind generation can even increase due to the low operation cost of these sources and reduced amount of environmental pollution [2,3]. However considering the intermittent and volatile operation of wind sources and the errors for wind generation and demand forecasting, imbalances can be caused between generation and demand.…”

Preliminary set of analysis for the assessment of wind turbines which are in the line‐of‐sight of radar, navigation and communications systems

“…Since it paves the way for energy production with low installation and operating costs and no atmospheric pollution, wind energy is expected to be prominent among other energy production technologies [1]. The great demand that currently exist on the wind energy production clearly indicates the increasing future investments on this technology.…”
