Patent ID: 7256508

Claim:
A wind-driven power-plant comprising a rotor ( 100 ) having at least one blade ( 101 ) and connected directly or indirectly to a generator ( 110 ) generating electric power, further comprising an electrical assembly ( 200 ) made up of different sub-assemblies ( 210 , 220 , 230 , 400 ) containing basic electronic, electrical and/or electromechanical and/or sensor elements/components and/or electrotechnical safety elements, wherein all elements/components or specific elements/components of an electric sub-assembly ( 210 , 220 , 230 , 400 ) are combined according to their purposes into one or more function modules ( 250 , 250 ′, 410 ) that implement a function relating to electric power generation, at least one parallel module ( 270 , 410 ′) being associated with at least one function module ( 250 , 250 ′, 410 ) and in normal operation of said power-plant implementing as needed an identical or similar function as the function module ( 250 , 250 ′, 410 ), where the function module ( 250 , 250 ′, 410 ) and the parallel module ( 270 , 410 ′) are connected or connectable to each other in a manner that, in the event of operational malfunction during which one function module ( 250 , 250 ′, 410 ) or a parallel module ( 270 , 410 ′) fails, the remaining operative function module or parallel module ( 250 , 250 ′ 270 , 410 , 410 ′) at least partly maintains power generation, wherein an electric sub-assembly comprises at least one control device to optimize electric power generation, the control device ( 400 ) including at least one operations managing computer (MC, MC′), wherein the electrical power feeding the control device ( 400 ) is obtained from at least one power source module (V, V′), and wherein at least one power source module (V, V′) is designed to be independent of a public electric network.
