Abstract
The present invention provides a method of erecting a wind turbine on a wind turbine site. The wind turbine comprises a turbine tower and a nacelle. The method comprises the following steps: providing a plurality of tower sections being arrangeable upon each other in a vertical orientation in a tower structure to form the turbine tower, providing at least two damper units configured to dampen oscillations of the turbine tower, attaching one of the at least two damper units to one of the plurality of the tower sections on an outside thereof, and subsequently arranging said tower section in the tower structure, attaching a subsequent one of the at least two damper units to another one of the plurality of the tower sections on an outside thereof, and subsequently arranging said tower section in the tower structure, while the previous one of the at least two damper units is still attached to the previous one of the plurality of tower sections.
