A yaw drive system for a wind energy system includes a hydraulic yaw motor for adjusting the yaw angle of a nacelle of a wind energy system, at least one hydraulic pump adapted for providing a pressurized hydraulic fluid, a hydraulic line system, including at least one line connecting the at least one hydraulic pump and the at least one hydraulic yaw motor, and at least one overpressure valve. The at least one overpressure valve is connected to at least one flow path of the hydraulic fluid between the at least one hydraulic pump and the at least one hydraulic motor. Further, a method for changing a yaw angle of a wind turbine nacelle is provided.
