 Abstract   This paper describes the experimantal emulation of the static and dynamic characteristics of wind turbines and flywheels in the laboratory by using electrical machines, thus enabling system studies to be undertaken without the need for real turbines or flywheels. It is shown that the emulation of the turbine or flywheel characteristics especially the system inertial characteristics, is not a straightforward problem if the mechanical dynamics are to be preserved. The paper considers certain emulation control structures that must be implemented in order to achieve good emulation under dynamic conditions. Experimental results obtained from 2.5kW prototype are discussed.
