Abstract |
An alternative to energy produced by fossil
fuels is the wind energy, which is a clean and renewable
alternative. The bulk of currently available wind power is
produced on large wind farms, which are operated by
power companies. These wind farms use up vast amounts
of space, and are usually located away from residential
areas. One way to make better use of available land would
be to allow institutions to install small windmills on their
own properties. These small windmills would help to offset
the load placed on the grid by the residence. A DC–DC
converter for such application is presented and the control
method discussed to inject power from a small wind
turbine into a site-wide DC bus. |
