Abstract: Three phase induction generators (SEIG) play a major role in renewable energy like wind energy and hydraulic energy generating systems. In this paper an attempt has been made to give the detailed approach about the analysis and control of SEIG for variable wind speed applications. The main disadvantage of SEIG is poor voltage regulation, here different strategies adopted for voltage regulation are discussed and its scope of research is evolved.
