Abstract

The invention relates to a control system for a wind turbine. The wind turbine comprises a power generator configured to generate power dependent on a power request. The control system comprises a ramp rate limiter configured to restrict a rate of change of the power request according to a rate of change limit and configured to determine the rate of change limit dependent on a power difference between the power request and an estimated available wind power.
