  • Patent number: 9222459
    Abstract: It stands out mainly for consisting of a nested configuration of electrolysis units (5), independently operated, the nominal power values of which are descendant in such a manner that, for any unit of the system, the sum of the nominal power of the smaller electrolysis units (5) is always greater than or equal to the “dead band” (DB) of said units, allowing reduction of the dead band of said hydrogen production system (4) to negligible levels, avoiding loss or discharge of the energy generated in said renewable power stations, preferably one or several wind farms (2) formed by a group of wind turbines (1), connected to the power grid (3) as a consequence of the implementation of a primary control service therein or, in general, of any other active power control service, thereby optimizing the total energy obtained.

  • Publication number: 20120063895
    Abstract: The electronic module (7) for the light beacon on the blade tip is integrated into a lighting system consisting of a power supply (3) located in the rotor (2), a fiber optic transmission system (4) that extends along the length of the blade (1), a converter (5) and a light emitting module (6). The electronic module comprises a power circuit and a control circuit, located at the blade tip (1) and encapsulated for protection against lightning strikes. The operating method of the electronic module (7) selects the blade (1) lighting during the ON interval corresponding to the 120° of the top rotation area, and keeps it switched off and receiving energy during the OFF interval corresponding to the bottom rotation area.

  • Patent number: 7960849
    Abstract: Method and system of control of the converter of an electricity generation facility of the type which comprises at least one electric generator, such as a wind generator, connected to an electricity network, in the presence of voltage sags in said network, the electric generator being a double-fed asynchronous generator formed by two windings, a winding in the stator, directly connected to the network, and a winding in the rotor which is fed on normal regime by said converter which imposes on it a predetermined voltage current called setpoint current. In the event of a voltage sag occurring, the converter imposes a new setpoint current which is the result of adding to the previous setpoint current a demagnetizing current which generates a flow in the rotor winding opposed to the free flow, consequently reducing the voltage in converter connectors.

  • Publication number: 20090316458
    Abstract: The invention presents a structure for the conversion of direct current electric power into alternating current electric power, characterised in that it is simple, highly efficient and minimises the problem of electromagnetic compatibility. The circuit includes, in its first preferred embodiment, six switching elements governed by a command unit, four switches forming an H-bridge (T1, T2, T3, T4) and two auxiliary switches (T5D, T6D), and two auxiliary diodes (Daux1 and Daux2). The elements of the H-bridge switch at grid frequency, whereas T5D and T6D switch at high frequency by means of pulse width modulation (PWM), or other appropriate modulation techniques. The voltage of these auxiliary switching elements (T5D, T6D) is limited topologically to half the direct current input voltage (Vin), thereby reducing switching losses and resulting in a high performance converter.
