Abstract

A method of operating an internal combustion engine, wherein a fuel-air mixture is burnt in the internal combustion engine and the internal combustion engine drives a generator, wherein the generator is connected to a power supply network and delivers power to the power supply network and wherein upon or after detection of a dynamic network fault by which the power delivery of the generator into the power supply network is reduced acceleration of the internal combustion engine is prevented or limited, wherein upon or after the detection of the network fault in the power supply network the fuel feed to the internal combustion engine is increased.
