Wind turbine ice protection system for controlling ice protection measures of at least one wind turbine

A method for using an ice protection control system for controlling wind turbine ice protection systems of at least one wind turbine, the method comprising:

• collecting raw sensor data from a first sensor subsystem of a first wind turbine, the first sensor subsystem comprising at least one sensor;
• receiving the raw sensor data from the at least one sensor by at least a first controller, wherein the at least a first controller is communicatively connected to the first sensor subsystem and an ice protection system of the first wind turbine;
• generating processed sensor data from the raw sensor data by the at least a first controller;
• receiving and storing the raw sensor data and processed sensor data by a site server at the location of the first wind turbine;
• receiving the processed sensor data from the site server by a first retrieval server at a location remote from the location of the first wind turbine;
• analyzing the processed sensor data by the first retrieval server;
• and
• generating heating mode instructions, based on the analyzed processed sensor data, by the first retrieval server;
• sending the heating mode instructions to the at least a first controller by the first retrieval server;
• and
• controlling a heating mode of the ice protection system, according to the received heating mode instructions, by the at least a first controller.
