Synchronous Generator

This is a multi-pole variable speed generator. Due to this and Power electronics the Gear Box which steps up the speed to meet the speed of Induction Generator is eliminated resulting in reduced transmission losses, and elimination of wear and tear of the Gear Box and oil leakage associated with it The Rotor-Hub is directly connected to the Generator Rotor by the Axle pin thus eliminating the Gear Box and couplings. The speed of the generator Rotor is the speed of the Hub Rotor, which is 45 RPM maximum for E-33 and 31.5 RPM maximum for E-48. Thus it rotates at 40 and 30 times lower speed than the Gear Box type Turbines, hence, very low wear and tear.




The Synchronous Generator of Enercon with its electronics provides an excellent operational band width i.e. Voltage 415 ± 20% V Frequency 50 ± 5 Hz.

Pitch Regulation

Enercon Machines are continuous pitch regulated machines i.e., the Blade feathers on its axis as per the requirement of the angle of attack to achieve optimum efficiency at all wind speeds. Due to this the yield of the Electric Energy Generated is higher.
Reactive Power (RKVAH)

In case of Induction Generators the Reactive Power (RKVAH) Consumption is very high especially when the generation is low to medium, as well as these Turbines are a strain on the Grid systems of the State Electricity Boards.
They consume RKVAH to the extent of 45% to 60% of the kwh generated. The State Electricity Boards of Karnataka, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Gujrat and Madhya Pradesh have imposed a penalty of Re 0.25 To Re 1.00 for drawl of every Unit of RKVAH which is an additional cost for the owners of the wind farms. Also the State Electricity Boards have to spend for additional capacitor banks at their sub-station to meet the requirements of Reactive Power whenever conventional types of Wind Energy Converters i.e., with Induction Generators are used.

Enercon's Synchronous Generator with its power electronic helps in generating RKVAH the extent of 0.95 lead of the Active power which actually helps the Grid System, and drawal of RKVAH is marginal.

Salient features of the Enercon Technology:

The Enercon machine employs three independent Aerodynamic Brakes. Each Blade turns on its own axis simultaneously and comes to such a position that the airflow is almost bypassed i.e., the lift force is considerably reduced, thereby bringing the Turbine to almost standstill condition.
