Abstract

The present article investigates innovative control technique for wind energy conversion systems using doubly fed induction generators, accentuating the limitations of conventional proportional-integral controllers under steady-state and variable wind conditions.It examines the integration of nonlinear fuzzy logic controllers to improve robustness, stability, and power quality.Furthermore, a fuzzy grey wolf optimizer algorithm is employed to optimally tune controller gains, optimizing both active and reactive power regulation.The research models the wind turbine, generator, machine and grid-side converters, with MATLAB/Simulink program validating the efficiency of the proposed technique.Results demonstrate that the integrated fuzzy-GWO controller significantly outperforms conventional methods.Specifically, for active power control, it reduces the Integral Time Absolute Error (ITAE) by 98.9% compared to the PI controller and by 95.8% compared to the Fuzzy PD controller.This translates to a faster response with negligible overshoot and superior tracking accuracy under both steady state and variable wind conditions, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of wind energy systems.
