Abstract

An electric generator (1) for the conversion of energy from a renewable energy source, such as wind energy, into electrical energy to be inserted into a local or remote network (R), which comprises a rotary electric machine (2) provided with means (3) for drawing energy from the renewable source and for converting into electrical energy, first control means (4) for regulating the functioning parameters of the machine (2), second control means (5) for regulating the parameters of the electrical energy generated by the machine (2), and connection means (6) for electrically connecting the second control means (5) to the network (R), wherein the machine (2) is positioned in a space (V) placed at a predetermined distance (h) with respect to a base (B) that is fixed or anchorable with respect to the ground (T). The first control means (4) are housed in a first case (7) placed inside the space (V), the second control means (5) are housed in a second case (8) that is different and spatially offset with respect of the first, and the second control means (5) are electrically connected to the first control means (4), to facilitate the mounting and the maintenance of the generator.
