ABSTRACT:
A wind energy installation (10) and a method for operation of a wind energy installation (10), with the wind energy installation (10) having a rotor (18) which can be driven by wind, having at least one rotor blade (22), a generator for conversion of the mechanical energy of the rotor (18) to electrical energy, as well as a tower (14) on which the rotor (18) is arranged. At least one measurement variable is measured, preferably more than once, by means of a suitable measurement device during. operation of the wind energy installation (10), which measurement variable is a measure of the bending of the rotor blade (22) in the tower direction as a result of a given wind load, and is thus a measure of the risk of the rotor blade (22) colliding with the tower (14) of the wind energy installation (10) as it passes the tower, with at least one operating parameter of the wind energy installation (10) being adjusted as a function of this measurement variable for determination of the rotor blade bending.
