Paper review: maximum power point tracking for wind energy conversion system

摘要

Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is essential for the Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) mainly for the small scale wind turbine. In order to captured the maximum possible power from wind turbine, it is very important to operate the WECS at MPPT and tracking the maximum power point in the power output signal. This paper presents a critical analysis of the algorithm generation to reach maximum power point based on power efficiency and simplicity.
