The Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR) has been developed in 2000 to develop control of electric drives. Since 2002 this graphical tool has been introduced to teach drive control in France, then Canada, Switzerland and China. The University of Lille proposes two drive control units using EMR for students in electrical engineering: initiation level and expert level. A first paper has described the initiation level with the simulation of an electric vehicle. This second paper deals with the content of the expert level unit and describes the simulation project of a wind energy conversion system using a MPPT (Maximal Power Point Tracking) strategy.
