A method 300 for optimizing the operation of a wind turbine 100 having a rotor 106 with at least one rotor blade 108, a tower 104, and a wind turbine controller 202, comprises determining 301 a first load status of the wind turbine 100 based on metereological data acquired by sensors 252-272, including a turbulence intensity; determining 302 a second load status of the wind turbine 100 based on mechanical loads on at least one wind turbine component; and increasing 303 a load of the wind turbine 100, if the determined first and second load status of the turbine 100 are within selectable load limits. A wind turbine 100 implementing the method 300 is also disclosed. |
