A wind turbine panel is configured to distribute electricity to a load. The wind turbine panel includes a frame further comprising a first slot having a first slot first end and a first slot second end. A first alternator is located in a first alternator mount on the first slot first end. A second alternator is located in a second alternator mount on the first slot second end. A wind turbine is connected to the first alternator and the second alternator via a first alternator shaft and a second alternator shaft, respectively.

Each field module includes one or more field coils which can be activated independent of the field coils of the neighbouring field modules. When at least one of the field coils is inactivated, e.g. because of a defect, each of the power converters is allowing less power to pass through when an armature coil connected to it is moving over an inactivated field coil, and more power to pass through when the armature coil connected to it is moving over an activated field coil.

A method for generating an alternating electric current is provided. In the method, multiple partial currents are generated and superimposed into a total current. Each of the partial currents is generated using a modulation method. The modulation method uses a tolerance band method having tolerance limits that are changeable.
