Abstract :
This paper aims to give a basic and strong idea of wind energy conversion system with the advanced power electronics systems for the researchers and students. In future, the whole world will look for renewable and alternative energy sources with modern control strategies. Sophisticated and modern high rated wind turbines are possible only with the help of power electronics. This paper really focused to give this idea and current trend in the leading wind industries.
