A variable rotor speed wind turbine, wind park, method of transmitting electric power and method of servicing or inspecting a variable rotor speed wind turbine

摘要

The invention relates to a variable rotor speed wind turbine transmitting AC electric power to a utility grid. The wind turbine includes at least one AC generator and at least two power electronic converter units. Further, it includes means for transforming at least one nominal output value of the generator to at least one different nominal input value of the at least two power electronic converter units. The invention also relates to a wind park and a method of transmitting AC electric power to a utility grid from a variable rotor speed wind turbine as well as a method of servicing or inspecting a variable rotor speed wind turbine.
