The invention relates to a power optimal control method for a variable-speed and variable-pitch wind turbine. The variable-speed and variable-pitch wind turbine is controlled within the whole designed wind speed range. When the wind turbine operates between the cut-in wind speed and rated wind speed, a variable-speed control mode is adopted, and at the time, by adjusting the electromagnetic torque of a generator, the wind turbine is made to operate under the optimal efficiency CP max.
