Abstract :
The burgeoning price of conventional sources have made it costlier in meeting load demand for stand-alone applications. So renewable sources, which are abundantly available have gained immense value in powering such remote locations. Wind energy is one of the proven technologies. This paper describes the implementation of a control scheme tested for a wind energy conversion system (WECS) with a wind turbine emulator (WTE) developed in MATLAB platform.
