A wind turbine emulator is a valuable tool, which enables real-time physical simulation of a wind turbine behavior using a dedicated experimental test setup, providing a controlled environment for research and development purposes. One significant advantage of using this tool is its ability to test control algorithms designed to maximize power extraction from the wind turbine. This paper continues previous work on developing a small-scale variable-speed wind turbine emulator based on a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator for stand-alone applications (Benhacine et al., 2024). This paper presents enhancements made to the emulator. These improvements facilitate the assessment of a maximum power point tracking control strategy designed to optimize power extraction from the wind turbine.
