Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods, controllers, wind turbines and computer program products for controlling a wind turbine. One or more wind speed measurements upstream of a wind turbine are received 202 and a determination of an indication of a current wind speed at the wind turbine is made 204. The indication may include below rated wind speed or above rated wind speed. It is determined 205 if the wind speed is in an up transition region or a down transition region based on the received one or more wind speed measurements and the indication of said current wind speed. If determined that said wind speed is in an up transition region or a down transition region then a boost action is performed 206.
