In an onshore horizontal axis wind turbine, generator and converter are usually in the nacelle on the top of the tower, while the grid step-up transformer is placed at the bottom. Electric power is transmitted down through flexible cables of high cur... Read More about A multilevel modular converter for a large, lightweight wind turbine generator.
