Grid connected WECS control for power production and power factor correction

The principal goal of this paper is to control a (WECS), based Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG), for active power production and power factor control. The (MPPT) control technique is applied to the PMSG connected to the grid through a cascade AC-DC-AC converter. In fact, the Stator Side Converter (SSC) is used for achieving the MPPT, for different wind speeds. While, the Grid Side Converter (GSC) is controlled to ensure simultaneously a smooth DC link voltage and power factor correction. Simulation results illustrate that the active power generation and the power factor correction are ensured successfully using the different control strategies.
