N2 - Due to the wind power capacity energy grow exponential, interest in operation maintenance is increasing. A proper pitch controller must be designed to extend the life cycle of some wind turbine (WT) components such as blades or tower. The pitch control system has two main, but conflicting, objectives. On the one hand, it seeks to maximize the wind energy captured and converted into electrical energy. On the other hand, it seeks to minimize fatigue and mechanical load. Various metrics are proposed to achieve a compromise solution that balances these objectives. A WT of 100 kW is used to validate pitch control strategies.
