Abstract

The present paper presents recent progress on the control of electric generators ranging from: synchronous generators control in power systems and doubly-fed induction generators for pump-storage power plants and wind turbines to gensets, automotive generator/motor for ICE, hybrid and electric vehicles and linear oscillatory generators for automotive and home electricity production. Integrated speed and voltage (active and reactive power) control for synchronous generators in more responsive power systems and variable speed generator control for more flexibility and faster active and reactive power control are key trends in the control of electric generators.
