 Abstract   The wind energy penetration level on the electrical system is increasing in considerable rates nowadays. This concerns the power supply and transmission companies because of the regulation of the interconnected network. Power reserve to guarantee the stability of this new system configuration would increasethe energy costs considerably. A new topology for a windenergy converter using a constant speed driven synchronous generator, where the power electronics between its terminals and the mains is not needed, is proposed. A variable speed planetary gear with a hydrodynamic torque control keeps the generator shaft velocity constant. An induced voltage controller on the excitation circuit fulfil the further electrical requirements on wind power plants.
