Modelling of small wind power plant with savonius-darrieus rotor in the PSCAD

The paper focuses on the creation of a mathematical model of a small wind power plant with a vertical axis of rotation with a Savonius-Darrieus rotor within the PSCAD. The paper describes the principle of a wind energy source and it brings basic data about this technology and specifies individual parameters and their mutual relations that are needed for mathematical simulation. The paper also presents the results of simulations of the created mathematical model and assesses the overall generated energy for an average and above-the-average windy day in a chosen area.
