One of the key challenges in wind power generation systems is various electric machine and drive failures.
A wind energy conversion system (WECS), converts the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power. In the next step, mechanical power is used to rotate generators in order to produce electrical energy.

Advanced manufacturing and assembly techniques are imperative in order to achieve the optimal performance of electric machine–drive systems for energy conversion, as well as avoid any potential failures. Development of induction machines for wind power generation naturally results in larger machine ratings and size.
