In this paper, a Direct Power Control (DPC) based on the switching table and Artificial Neural Network-based Maximum Power Point Tracking control for variable speed Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) is proposed. In the context of wind energy exploitation, we are interested in this work to improve the performance of the wind generator by controlling the continuation of the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The results obtained show the interest of such control in this system. The proposed Direct Power Control strategy produces a fast and robust power response, also the grid side is controlled by Direct Power Control based a grid voltage position to ensure a constant DC- link voltage. The THD of the current injected into the electric grid for the Wind Energy Conversion Systems with Direct Power Control is shown in this paper, the THD is lower than the 5 % limit imposed by IEEE STANDARDS ASSOCIATION. This approach Direct Power Control is validated using the Matlab/Simulink software and simulation results can prove the excellent performance of this control as improving power quality and stability of wind turbine.

This paper presents on overview of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques for different types of wind energy conversion systems (WECS). In order to obtain maximum power from the wind turbine (WT), variable speed wind energy conversion systems (VSWECSs) are preferred over constant speed wind energy conversion systems (CSWECSs).In VSWECS, the rotational speed of the turbine is varied by controlling the aerodynamic or electrical parameters of WECS to maintain a constant tip-speed ratio (TSR). This is called maximum power point tracking and different techniques are applied to WECS namely Squirrel Cage Induction Generators (SCIGs) based WECS, Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSGs) based WECS.

A wind energy conversion system needs a maximum power point tracking strategy. In the literature, several works have interested in the search for a maximum power point. Generally, their goals are to optimize the rotation speed or the machine torque and the direct current–direct current or the alternating current–direct current duty cycle switchers. This work presents a comparative study between two maximum power point tracking strategies of a wind energy conversion system. The model of the system is studied and developed. It includes a permanent magnet synchronous generator, a diode rectifier and a three-cell direct current–direct current converter. The direct current–direct current is controlled in order to generate the wind maximum power using the tip speed ratio strategy and optimal torque strategy. The effectiveness of the used strategies control scheme is proved by simulation results using MATLAB/Simulink.

Renewable energy resources are gaining a lot of popularity. Several researchers have worked on the tracking and extraction of energy from these sources. In the past few decades, among the available green energy resources, wind energy has been the most attractive option among the resources available. It is imperative to use the maximum power available in the wind to achieve the wind turbine (WT) operation at maximum power. The maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms are a pioneer in this context. Many research papers are contributed in this domain which necessitates a thorough review while choosing an appropriate technique. This paper comprehensively focuses on reviewing different algorithms in the past and present for tracking maximum power point, and capturing maximized output power from the wind energy conversion system (WECS). In this paper, the algorithms are classified based on the direct and indirect power measurement, hybrid and smart algorithms for tracking maximum power point, and they are compared, considering the parameters like complexity, convergence speed, use of sensors, memory requirement, need for knowledge of system parameters, etc. The immense popularity of the different versions of perturb and observe (P&O) based algorithms due to their various features is evident from the literature. The review reveals that the hybrid maximum power point tracking algorithms can use the advantages of the conventional methods and eliminate their drawbacks.
