The present invention relates to a method for regulating a flow of power between a wind power facility and a power grid connected thereto. The method comprises the steps of determining whether power is to be delivered to or absorbed from the power grid, and at least partly disabling or at least partly enabling one or more power consuming auxiliary systems in response to said determination. Moreover, an arrangement for delivering additional power to a power grid is provided.
