This paper deals with the control of a standalone DFIG-based Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) by using a three-level Neutral-Point-Clamped (NPC) converter. . Wind power systems, which are currently being constructed for the electricity worldwide market, are mostly based on Doubly Fed Induction Generators (DFIGs). The traditional two-stage conversion process, involving rectification and inversion connected by a DC-link. . In addition to the application of multilevel converters, it is possible to increase the voltage and power levels employing an open-end winding (OEW) connection to the generator.

DIGICEL Jamaica has partnered with US-based renewable energy firm Caban Energy to launch an ambitious solar roll-out across its telecommunications infrastructure to power up to 40 per cent of its cell sites. Amidst power outages and rising electricity costs, communities are turning to the sun for a brighter, more resilient future. Set to begin in April, the initiative aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions by over 38,674. . Power utility Jamaica Public Service Company, JPS, is investing US$300 million to construct Jamaica's largest solar power plant and a battery storage facility, starting this month. The. . Jamaica 's electricity sector is dominated by non-renewable generators that use petroleum products, primarily Bunker C fuel oil and automotive diesel which generated 93% of the annual output for 2014. There is a small contribution from a few small hydroelectric plants and a couple of wind farms. . Solar power is a key tool in achieving energy conservation and efficiency, EMEP's key mandate.
