Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for releasing a requested amount of power from a power facility to an associated power grid, the method comprising the steps of providing a release signal as to when the requested amount of power is to be released from the power facility to the associated power grid, ramping up the power generation of the power facility, and releasing the requested amount of power to the associated power grid in accordance with the release signal, wherein at least part of an excess power generated during ramping up is dissipated and/or stored in suitable power handling modules. The present invention also relates to a power facility controller being capable for performing this method.
