Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for limiting structural loads in a wind turbine in situations where the power produced by the wind turbine is increased or decreased. The limitation of structural loads is achieved by restricting the power ramp rate, i.e. the rate of change of increases or decreases in produced power. The restriction is only invoked if a maximum change of the produced power or the corresponding internal power reference within a time window exceeds a given threshold.
