Abstract

The focus of the work is on optimizing the wind power system to generate high-quality power from renewable energy sources. This article describes how to control a stand-alone PMSG wind turbine system using perturb and observe (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller. This aids in the regulation of output voltage levels and the maximum power provided to the load. The present study employs P&O MPPT control algorithm to optimize energy extraction from the wind resource, while simultaneously ensuring a stable voltage throughout the load. The goal of MPPT approaches is to establish a reference speed so that the wind energy conversion system (WECS) control system can follow the MPPT trajectory. The MPPT controllers can keep the system running smoothly irrespective of the wind speed fluctuations. There is a significant power output improvement over conventional controllers when using the proposed MPPT controller, according to the comparison results. The DC-DC boost converter was implemented for enhancing the low AC voltage given by the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG).
