Wind turbines are used to capture the kinetic energy of wind and convert it into mechanical energy. The software is a crucial component of wind energy systems, and it is used in several sub-technical divisions to optimize performance, monitor, and maintain equipment, manage data, and enable communication between components. 
This is where NISO can support you to speed up time-to-market:  

Control System

The control system is responsible for regulating the operation of the wind turbines and ensuring that they operate safely and efficiently. Software is used to program the control system to adjust the angle and pitch of the blades based on wind speed and direction, and to monitor and adjust the overall performance of the wind turbines.

Power Converter

The power converter is responsible for converting the mechanical energy produced by the wind turbines into electrical energy that can be used by the power grid. Software is used to control the power converter and ensure that the electrical output is stable and matches the grid requirements.

Monitoring and Maintenance

Wind energy systems require regular monitoring and maintenance to ensure that they are operating at peak efficiency. Software is used to monitor the performance of the wind turbines and other components, detect and diagnose issues, and schedule maintenance and repairs.

Energy Management System

EMS is an essential component of wind energy systems, helping to optimize the performance of the wind turbines and ensure that the energy produced is delivered to the power grid in a stable and consistent manner. Also, it is used to monitor and control the flow of energy within a wind farm, ensuring that the turbines operate efficiently. The EMS can incorporate weather forecasting and demand forecasting tools to help optimize the operation of the wind farm and ensure that energy is delivered when and where it is needed.

Data Management and Analysis

Wind energy systems generate a large amount of data, such as wind speed and direction, power output, and turbine performance. Software is used to collect, store, and analyze this data to optimize the performance of the wind turbines and improve overall system efficiency.

Communication and Networking

Wind energy systems often include multiple wind turbines spread out over a large area. Software is used to enable communication and networking between the turbines, allowing them to work together and share data.

Gearbox

The gearbox is responsible for increasing the rotational speed of the wind turbine's blades so that they can produce more power.

Battery Management System

This unit manages and monitors the performance of rechargeable batteries. It regulates the charging and discharging process, ensures that each cell in the battery is functioning properly, and protects the battery from damage due to overcharging, over-discharging, or overheating and maximizing batteries' lifetime by enhancing its endurance against harsh conditions.
