| Abstract: | Renewable wind energy systems widely employ doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs), where efficient converter control ensures grid-integrated power system stability and reliability. Conventional proportional–integral (PI) controller tuning methods often encounter challenges with nonlinear dynamics and parameter variations, resulting in reduced adaptability and efficiency. To address this, we present an owl search optimization (OSO)-based tuning strategy for PI controllers in DFIG back-to-back converters. Inspired by the hunting behavior of owls, OSO provides robust global search capabilities and resilience against premature convergence. The proposed method is evaluated in MATLAB/Simulink and benchmarked against particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm (GA), and simulated annealing (SA) under step wind variations, turbulence, and grid disturbances. Simulation results demonstrate that OSO achieves superior performance, with 96.4% efficiency, reduced power losses (~40 kW), faster convergence (<400 ms), shorter settling time (<345 ms), and minimal oscillations (0.002). These findings establish OSO as a robust and efficient optimization approach for DFIG-based wind energy systems, delivering enhanced dynamic response and improved grid stability.
