In the context of current greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction and climate change mitigation goals, windenergy has received increasing attention worldwide, with technologies developed and used globally. Tomaintain the industry growth, innovative technologies must keep evolving, focusing on improving reliability,increasing capacity factors, and reducing costs. However, despite the rapid evolution of wind technology,high-performance system parts such as sensors and controllers are still flawed and lack selection. GagnonRenewable Resources Inc. (GRR herein) has been unable to source a controller that fits the needs of their newwind turbine, and thus, the company aims to develop a new innovative controller that will meet theirrequirements. Therefore, the objective of the new partnership between Collège Boréal and GRR is to conduct aproduct development and proof of concept study of a new innovative wind turbine controller. If the study issuccessful, GRR will have a new cutting-edge device to carry forward their new wind turbine system. This newsystem will contribute to the economic development of the company and will allow them to approach clientsand present them with clean energy options for their electricity needs. Through an experiential applied researchand learning setting, students participating in the project will gain new knowledge of wind turbine design andthe electrical signals and digital algorithms required in their controllers while under the supervision of aCollège Boréal professor.

在当前温室气体（GHG）减排和减缓气候变化目标的背景下，随着风能技术在全球范围内的开发和使用，风能越来越受到全世界的关注。为了保持行业的增长，创新技术必须不断发展，专注于提高可靠性、增加容量因素和降低成本。然而，尽管风电技术发展迅速，但传感器和控制器等高性能系统部件仍然存在缺陷，缺乏选择。GagnonRenewable Resources Inc. （GRR）一直无法找到适合他们新风力涡轮机需求的控制器，因此，该公司旨在开发一种新的创新控制器，以满足他们的要求。因此，博尔萨塔尔学院和GRR之间的新伙伴关系的目标是进行一种新的创新风力涡轮机控制器的产品开发和概念验证研究。如果研究成功，GRR将有一个新的尖端设备来推进他们的新风力涡轮机系统。这个新系统将有助于公司的经济发展，并将使他们能够接近客户，并为他们的电力需求提供清洁能源选择。通过体验式的应用研究和学习环境，参与项目的学生将在acolires borachim教授的指导下获得风力涡轮机设计和控制器所需的电信号和数字算法的新知识。
