Wind is a clean fuel; wind farms produce no air or water pollution because no fuel is burned. Growing concern about emissions from fossil fuel generation, increased government support, and higher costs for fossil fuels (especially natural gas and coal) have helped wind power capacity in the United States grow substantially over the last 10 years.

IGBTs are well suited for a switching frequency range up to 30 kHz. Using special techniques, so-called resonant topologies, the switching losses can be reduced, and higher switching frequencies can be achieved. In contradiction to a MOSFET, IGBTs can be built to withstand very high voltages. With an overlap between 300 V

Wind energy is the energy which is extracted from wind. For extraction we use wind mill. Ii is renewable energy sources. The wind energy needs less cost for generation of electricity. Maintenance cost is also less for wind energy system. Wind energy is present almost 24 hours of the day. It has less emission.

Windmill Consider the windmill. Rather than the rotor being driven by a motor, it is rotated in the opposite direction by the wind blowing through the rotor. Idealized flow through a windmill: (a) windmill blade geometry; (b) absolute velocity, V; relative velocity, W, and blade velocity, U at the inlet and exit of the windmill blade section.

using the PMG for hydro power. What this PMG can do This PMG is made for small wind generators (see diagram 2). To build a complete wind generator, you also need • a tower : perhaps a steel pipe, supported with guy ropes, • a 'yaw head' swivelling on the tower top, • a tail, to keep it facing towards the wind, • a set of blades, to turn it.
