Synopsis
Wind energy is a reliable and easy–to–maintain electrical power supply. The high installed capacity of today′s wind turbines and decreasing plant costs indicate that wind power can be competitive with conventional, more heavily polluting fuels in the long term. This will be a welcome addition to the literature on modern wind turbines and their connection to the grid. Focusing on the electrical engineering aspects of wind energy, this title gives a detailed exploration of electrical and mechanical components and their interdependency, power control and supervision in wind power plants, and the grid integration facility.

From the Back Cover
Grid Integration of Wind Energy Conversion Systems Siegfried Heier Kassel University, Germany Translated by Rachel Waddington Swadlincote, UK Cost–effective transmission and distribution of wind power generated electricity presents a stimulating engineering challenge. Grid Integration of Wind Energy Conversion Systems addresses the technical, economic and safety issues inherent in the exploitation of wind power in a competitive electricity market. Features include:
- Conventional and new types of generators, converters and power electronics
- Comprehensive treatment of grid integration including the effect of power fluctuations on harmonics
- Focus on improved use of grid capacities and grid support for fixed–and variable–speed controlled wind power plants
- Demonstration of impedance changes in the grid caused by the coupling of wind power plants
- Power conditioning and control systems to ensure the safe operation of plants
- Discussion of energy results and expectations of profitability
