Synopsis:   

The paper presents the dynamic model of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) and its control structures used for variable speed wind energy conversion (WEC) system. DFIG is often a natural choice for electricity generation from renewable energy source. The stator flux oriented vector control algorithm is implemented. The results show that how such a control strategy offers the possibility of controlling the power generated by the DFIG.
