“…Hence, using PMSG without a gearbox could be very useful and efficient exclusively for offshore applications, where less maintenance is required. 5,6 Generally, PMSG is used in small-scale wind power generation systems, 7 and because grid codes all over the world are stepped up, directdrive PMSG-based wind-turbine systems might be preferred in future over wind-turbine systems using doubly fed induction generators (DFIG). 3,8,9 On other hand, applications of power electronics converters (PECs) in the field of power systems are making a great impact on power conditioning especially in renewable energy systems integrated into the electrical grid.…”
