Abstract
Undoubtedly, wind turbines are currently one of the most significant contributors to clean energy. Therefore, it is crucial to enhance the capability of wind turbines, which in turn leads to an increase in their dimensions. Nevertheless, only advanced control systems can guarantee the optimal and secure operation of these huge machines. On the other hand, the precise control of these modern wind turbines is only achievable through the use of highly specialised actuators. Despite their importance, actuators have historically been overlooked and seen as secondary components in control systems. However, in modern machines, actuators are required to manipulate multiple tonnes or manage thousands of volts and amperes within short times. Consequently, greater emphasis must be placed on their handling and operation. This study aims to review actuators for modern large wind energy converters from a control engineering perspective, using a tutorial approach.
