The permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is dominantly used in the present wind energy market. Reflecting the latest wind energy market trends and research articles, this study presents a survey on important electrical engineering aspects for PMSG‐based megawatt‐level wind energy conversion systems (WECSs). A comprehensive analysis on power converter topologies for wind turbines (WTs), grid integration of wind farms, digital control schemes, fault‐ride‐through compliance methods, and future trends is presented. The updated market share, technology trends, WT products information, in‐depth technical analysis, and promising research works highlighted in this study will help the reader to understand the state‐of‐the‐art and emerging technologies for PMSG‐based WECS.
