Abstract: In this paper an indirect vector control using fuzzy sliding mode control is proposed for a double-fed induction generator (DFIG), applied for a wind energy conversion system in variable speed. The objective is to independently control the active and reactive power generated by the DFIG, which is decoupled by the orientation of the flux. The sliding mode control finds its strongest justification for the problem concerning the use of a robust nonlinear control law for the model uncertainties. As far as the fuzzy mode control is concerned, it aims at reducing the chattering effect. The obtained results show the increasing interest of such control in this system
