Wind power generation system is divided into

Fig. 5 is the typical framework of a wind power generation system. For a wind power generation system, the wind turbine is a critical part. Modern wind turbines (Fig. 6) can be divided into horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) and vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT).

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.

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.

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.

There are two primary types of wind turbines: the common horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) and the more experimental vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs). Each HAWT turbine possesses two or three blades, much like an airplane propeller, or a disk containing many blades (multiblade type) attached to each turbine.

The basic function of a wind turbine generator system is simple: capture wind energy and turn it into usable power. The wind's movement causes the blades to rotate, which powers the generator. Windmill projects are usually placed in areas with strong, consistent winds, like open fields or offshore locations, to maximize their energy production.
