Abstract
A wind power generation systemof an embodiment includes a rotorhaving a huband blades, a nacellepivotally supporting the rotor, a towersupporting the nacelle, an airflow generation deviceprovided in a leading edge of each of the bladesand having a first electrodeand a second electrodewhich are separated via a dielectric, and a discharge power supplycapable of applying a voltage between the electrodes of the airflow generation device. Further, the system includes a measurement device detecting information related to at least one of output in the wind power generation system, torque in the rotorand a rotation speed of the blades, and a control unitcontrolling the discharge power supplybased on an output from the measurement device.
