Wind Energy Harvesting and Conversion Systems: A Technical Review

Wind energy harvesting for electricity generation has a significant role in overcoming the challenges involved with climate change and resource implications population growth political unrest. Indeed, there been wind capacity worldwide turbine growing significantly over last two decades. This confidence is echoed power market global statistics. However, capture utilisation always challenging. Appreciation of as makes difficulties modelling sensitivities how maps to production results an opportunity. An opportunity that dependent on different system parameters, namely resource, technology synergies realizing optimal harvest. paper presents thorough review state art concerning realization utilisation. The and, more specifically, influence speed forecasting are considered conjunction technological considerations optimization can realise effective operational efficiencies. Moreover, non-technological issues affecting also considered. These include standards regulatory higher levels grid integration non-synchronous penetration (SNSP). concludes hybrid techniques enable accurate predictable appreciation employs multi-objective approach most suitable achieving configuration maximum harvesting.
