Generator equipment for wind farms

The search for alternative energy sources has been ongoing for many years, and wind turbines are currently one of the most effective solutions in this field. This equipment is capable of generating electricity for various applications using wind power, based on the principle of converting one form of energy into another.

It is the generator equipment for wind farms that is the key element in ensuring the stable operation of the entire system. Although wind turbines are themselves a source of electricity, it is diesel generators that provide an uninterrupted power supply to auxiliary systems. They are indispensable during periods of calm, in the event of breakdowns, or when the external grid is down. Without such a backup power source, a wind farm cannot operate effectively, as control systems, heating systems and machinery require a constant supply of electricity. At Dalgakiran, you can select and purchase reliable generator equipment for any wind farm.

Why generator sets are important for wind farms

At wind farms, diesel generators perform critical functions. They power the turbine control systems, heat the equipment in winter (to prevent the blades and mechanisms from freezing), and provide a backup power source during periods of no wind or grid outages.

Such equipment is particularly essential for remote wind farms where there is no stable grid (or no grid at all) — in such cases, it is the stand-alone generator that guarantees an uninterrupted power supply to the electronics and automation systems. Without it, power generation stops, even if the wind picks up again. In such cases, the use of this equipment is the only way to guarantee the energy efficiency of the entire wind farm.

How choosing the right generator affects wind energy efficiency

Choosing the right generator is crucial if you want to ensure not only stability but also the energy efficiency of the wind farm. Incorrectly selected power ratings or equipment types lead to downtime, fuel wastage or even damage to systems without the necessary equipment to stabilise the voltage. It is also important that the generators work well in conjunction with other devices: such as inverters, control panels and so on.

Types of generators for wind farms

There are various types of generators for wind farms, but the most common are containerised, stand-alone diesel generators with weather protection (IP54+). By capacity: small (30–100 kVA) for local systems, medium (100–500 kVA) for heating and control, and large (1–2 MVA) for the entire wind farm’s reserve capacity.

Types by design: sound-insulated for environmental protection zones, and liquid-cooled for low temperatures.

In our catalogue, you can find and order high-quality diesel power stations, including those from the Cummins brand. This manufacturer offers a wide range of models, from which you can select equipment with the required power and functionality. Cummins is a manufacturer that produces all the components of a diesel generator: the engine, alternator, control panel and filter elements. As a result, the equipment operates as a single, reliable unit and offers numerous technical advantages not found in most off-the-shelf assemblies.

Advantages of using modern generators for wind farms

Modern generators primarily ensure an uninterrupted power supply to the yaw/pitch systems (turbine rotation), blade and nacelle heating in winter, and rapid black start following emergencies. High energy efficiency — low fuel consumption (0.2–0.3 l/kW·h), precise voltage and frequency regulation.

Use in remote regions is made reliable through remote monitoring, automatic start-up and the parallel operation of multiple units, which together minimise downtime, enhance safety and extend the service life of wind turbines.
