From the reviews:"The book in my hand is the first . completely dedicated to the control of wind energy systems; more precisely, it addresses a specific control design approach, the gain scheduling. . This monograph is addressed mainly to scientists from academia, but the reader can perceive its utility for industrials as well. . I feel that this book has achieved what the authors set out to do . ." (Iulian Munteanu, International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Vol. 18, 2008)"The authors of Wind Turbine Control Systems are knowledgeable about the subject, having published several papers in this area . . Wind Turbine Control Systems provides a good introduction to wind energy for control engineers . . The target audience for this text is members of the control research community who are interested in wind energy applications. . provides an overview of wind turbines with an emphasis on various control objectives and LPV-based strategies for control."
