Abstract: A wind-diesel power generation system supplying the isolated load is presented. The doubly
fed induction generator driven by variable speed wind turbine is proposed to obtain reduction of the
fuel consumption in cooperated diesel genset, with the short time energy storage increasing the
voltage quality of hybrid wind-diesel power system, in case of rapid load change. Four wire microgrid
is established to obtain the system, able to supply of unbalance and single phase load. Control system
of the output voltage is described. Results of laboratory tests are presented.
Keywords: wind energy, diesel driven gensets, variable speed power generation, permanent magnet
generator, double fed induction generator, energy storage.
