The aim of this paper is to ensure the sensorless control of an inertial storage system associated to an isolated Hybrid Energy Production Unit (HEPU). The Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) is used as energy buffers in order to store or retrieve energy into a stand-alone load. A comparative...

This paper is interested in the control of a wind energy conversion system (WECS) based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) under grid fault conditions. A single line to ground fault and a double line to ground fault are tested during the hyper-synchronous operation of the DFIG wind...

This study was interested in the management of an energy production unit. A variable speed wind turbine (VSWT) was used as a principal source and a supercapacitor (SC) module was used as an energy storage system. Both were connected through a direct current bus. This unit was supplying a...

This paper presents a comparative study of sliding mode, artificial neural network and model reference adaptive speed observers for a speed sensorless permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) in wind energy conversion system (WECS). Wind velocity and position sensorless operating methods...

In this paper, we are interested in a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) based on a Permanent Magnetic Synchronous Generator (PMSG). The studied WECS is made by the association of three aerogenerators. The objective of this work is to investigate a new strategy of pitch angle control to ensure...
