Control System optimizes wind turbine grid integration.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 08:38:08 -0500

WindINERTIA technology allows wind turbines to provide inertial response for large, short-duration frequency deviations. Utilizing mechanical inertia of turbine rotor, it enables operating turbine to increase power output by 5-10% of its rated power, over wide range of wind speeds. Duration of power increase is several seconds and benefits grid by allowing time for other non-wind power generation assets to increase power production during large under-frequency events.
