Abstract

See full text

A method and system for converting mechanical energy from a generator operated by a turbine into electric energy to be input into an electric network, comprising the following:

    (A) supplying a power electronic converter connectable to input of the generator and to output of the electric network;(B) supplying an electrical power outputting the generator to the power electronic converter;(C) adapting the electrical power using the power electronic converter to input the electrical power to the electric network by the following substeps:(C1) calculating rotation speed of the turbine;(C2) calculating wind speed moving the turbine;(C3) calculating reference rotation speed, corresponding to the maximum point of power input to the electric network, using a Maximum Power Point Tracking algorithm;the method comprising substep (C1) implemented by an algorithm carrying out a virtual encoder, and substep (C2) implemented by training a neural network implementing a virtual anemometer.
