Abstract:
A method of controlling a wind turbine, wherein the wind turbine includes a hub having at least one blade with at least one an add-on member which is actuated to alter aerodynamic properties of the blade. The method includes a step of acquiring a target noise level, and a step of controlling the at least one add-on member of the blade such that an actual noise level caused by the operation of the wind turbine is equal to or below the target noise level.
