FIXED and VARIABLE wind turbines, help pls! - General - NREL Forum

Hello all! First of all i want to say that i am happy to be part of this big community 🙂 I have a question: What is difference between FIXED and VARIABLE wind turbines? I have read a lot about them but couldnt figure out difference :\ when i look at power curve, both have the same. where: Fixed-speed fixed-pitch (FS-FP) Variable-speed fixed-pitch (VS-FP) Please if somebody can, explain me the difference and how they work. As i understand from the name FIXED speed means that
