This article reviews the renewable energy systems emulators proposals for microgrid laboratory testing platforms. Four emulation conceptual levels are identified based on the literature analysis performed. Each of these levels is explained through a microgrid example, detailing its features and possibilities. Finally, an experimental microgrid, built based on emulators, is presented to exemplify the system performance.

“…The speed ratio is expressed as follows: The aerodynamic torque T aer of the turbine can then be obtained by dividing the expression of the power calculated in Equation by the rotation speed of the mechanical shaft Ω m : The expression () is not satisfactory insofar as an indeterminacy of the T em‐DC torque startup: At this operating point, the speed Ω m is zero. Thus, the torque coefficient depends on the power coefficient as follows: We introduce expressions () and () in Equation : …”

Summary
This paper was focused on the implementation of experimental test bench for a wind power generator (WPG) connected to the electrical network. The objectives of this work are to validate the test bench functionality and to investigate in real time a high‐order sliding‐mode control (SMC) scheme applied to control the WPG. This study has three main purposes. The first one is the development of the SMC technique to ensure a control method insensitive against nonlinear behavior of wind systems. The second one is the experimental implementation of this SMC scheme. The third one is a synchronization technique that has been presented in a grid‐connected power inverter to adapt the WPG voltage to the grid voltage. A comparative study between the experimental and simulation results demonstrates the functionality of the test platform and the robustness of the SMC in real time.
