Abstract: Abstract The necessity of making smart devices, intelligent processing and informative communication has taken the Internet of things (IoT) to a new level. Various industries have been implementing IoT-based services to increase the throughput as well as for information management and analysis. Such IoT-based systems with the use of cloud computing and big data analytics are now approaching toward the field of wind energy, one of the most promising, environment friendly and clean renewable energy sources. In the scenario of the competitive energy market, productivity, efficiency, operating costs and profitability are of prime importance. All these parameters demand a system with the ability to continuously monitor and maintain high performance over the time. That is where Internet of Things (IoT) analytics is seen as a significant technology trend for the sustainable growth of renewable energy sector. This paper discusses the recent trends and use of IoT in energy generation, specifically in relation to wind energy generation. This paper explored various areas of IoT application with respect to WT system such as IoT integration with energy generation system, IoT in wind turbine monitoring and control, maintenance and prediction systems. The prime contribution of this review paper is that it summarizes the current state of the art of IoT-based applications in the wind energy conversion systems.
