A wind turbine, also known as a wind energy converter, is a device that converts the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy. Wind turbines come in a variety of sizes, with either horizontal or vertical axes. There are 650 gigawatts of power in hundreds of thousands of large turbines known as wind farms, with 60 gigawatts added each year. The direct drive wind turbine is a low-speed generator that does not require a gearbox as part of the turbine's drive train. These turbines have advantages such as being lighter than conventional turbines, having significantly lower maintenance costs, and not requiring a gearbox replacement because they are gearless turbines. The permanent magnet type generator is the most popular direct drive wind turbine generator because it is lighter in weight and has a high reliability for offshore applications. The advantages of direct drive wind turbine mentioned above are expected to drive the market growth during forecast period.
