Abstract
This work incorporated the solutions to the technical challenges of output fluctuations and intermittencies of wind turbines due to an everchanging wind speed and wind direction. The design comprises of wind sensing, electronic control and electric motor sections. Microcontroller technology using ATMEGA 2560 and electronic technology was applied to equip the device with both wind-direction harvesting and wind-speed reinforcement capabilities. Upon implementation on a turbine, the available wind was harvested, irrespective of the originating direction for channeling into attaining maximum turbine blade rotation and to compensate for drop in wind speed through generation of appropriate rotor speed reinforcement needed for sufficient Revolution Per Minute (RPM) of the alternator.
