The wind speed information measured by the wind speed sensor in the wind turbine generator may differ from sufficient wind speed. Therefore, this paper proposes a new effective wind speed calculation method and applies it to the optimal maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of wind energy. After estimating the turbine torque and its rotor speed, the process reverses the turbine’s aerodynamic model. The extended state observer (ESO) based on sliding mode control is used to estimate the aerodynamic torque, which solves complex and challenging tuning of the traditional ESO parameters, and replaces the conventional PI controller, thereby improving the anti-interference and robustness of the system. The sliding mode observer (SMO) is used to estimate the rotor speed. While satisfying the conditions of Lyapunov’s inequality, the design of the SMO is discussed in detail. The wind speed estimation method proposed for evaluating permanent magnet semidirect drive wind turbine and its application performance in maximum power tracking. The simulation was carried out in MATLAB/Simulink; the simulation confirmed that the estimated wind speed under different wind conditions is accurate. Compared with the traditional PI control, the utilization rate of wind energy is increased by 2%, which can be used for the MPPT control of the wind energy conversion system.
