A survey on operation of wind turbine generators in stand-alone microgrid

This paper reviews the various operation techniques of wind turbines within the stand-alone microgrid. First, the paper focuses on the feature and operation of the stand-alone microgrid when it includes wind turbines. Then, various methods to operate and control wind turbines within the stand-alone microgrid are introduced. In addition, main considerations are explained for the operation of a wind turbine generator (WTG) in a stand-alone microgrid. Finally, the technical challenges for this issue are discussed.
