Abstract

A method for preparing a wind power facility for a transition from a first mode of operation to a second mode of operation includes the steps of specifying a set of operational parameters to be applied by the wind power facility in connection with the second mode of operation, said specified set of operational parameters being available for the wind power facility in response to a provided transition triggering signal, and providing the transition triggering signal and applying the specified set of operational parameters in the wind power facility in response thereto, wherein a subset of the specified set of operational parameters is applied in each of a plurality of wind turbine generators in response to the provided transition triggering signal. The first mode of operation may involve a normal mode of operation whereas the second mode of operation may involve an island mode of operation.
