A method for planning installation of a wind turbine component, such as a wind turbine blade, of an offshore wind turbine (1) is disclosed. A digital model (7) of the wind turbine (1) is generated, based on input regarding design specifications of at least the tower (2) of the wind turbine (1), and input regarding seabed conditions at a site where the wind turbine (1) is located. Meteorological prediction data related to a predefined future time period and to the site where the wind turbine (1) is located is applied to the digital model (7) of the wind turbine (1), and an estimate for expected tower oscillations during the predefined future time period is generated, based thereon. At least one time slot during the predefined future time period is identified, where the estimated expected tower oscillations are below a predefined threshold value, and installation of the wind turbine component is scheduled during one of the identified time slots.
A method for planning installation of a wind turbine component of an offshore wind turbine, the wind turbine comprising a tower mounted on a foundation structure, the method comprising the steps of:
