Wind power generation system overview
📌

What is wind power generation?

Wind power generation is power generation that converts wind energy into electric energy. The wind generating set absorbs wind energy with a specially designed blade and converts wind energy to mechanical energy, which further drives the generator rotating and realizes conversion of wind energy to electric energy.

📌

What is wind power?

Wind power is a form of energy conversion in which turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy that can be used for power. Wind power is considered a form of renewable energy. Modern commercial wind turbines produce electricity by using rotational energy to drive a generator.

📌

What are the principles of wind power generation?

The principles of wind power generation may seem simple, but they encompass intricate scientific concepts. The flow of wind drives the rotation of blades, and several devices convert this mechanical motion into electrical energy.

📌

How much energy does wind power generate a year?

Wind power generation technology is now relatively mature, with annual generation amounting to 640 TWh, accounting for less than 3% of the world’s total energy consumption.

📌

What is vertical axis wind power generation?

Vertical axis wind power generation involves using a vertically oriented rotor to convert wind energy into mechanical energy, which is then transformed into electrical energy by a generator. The main components of a vertical axis wind turbine are the rotor, generator, and tower.

📌

What are the components of wind power generation system?

In terms of configuration, wind power generation system normally consists of wind turbine, generator, and grid interface converters where the generator is one of the core components. There are the following wind power generation technologies such as synchronous generator, induction generator, and doubly fed induction generator.
