Title:
METHOD OF OPERATING A WIND TURBINE, WIND TURBINE, WIND TURBINE CONTROLLING SYSTEM, AND PROCESSING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/120523
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
According to an embodiment, a method of operating a wind turbine comprising a DC-to-AC voltage converter is provided, the wind turbine being connectable to a grid via the DC-to-AC voltage converter, the method comprising: determining a line voltage of a power line connecting the DC-to-AC voltage converter to the grid; if the determined line voltage exceeds a predefined voltage threshold value, injecting reactive current into the power line, wherein the amount of reactive current injected is chosen such that an output voltage of the DC-to-AC voltage converter is kept within a predetermined voltage range.
