1. A method of controlling a wind turbine, the method comprising:
boosting an output power of the wind turbine above a nominal power of the wind turbine, according to a boost operational function representing a boost level for the wind turbine, the boost operational function being a crescent linear function of a turbulence intensity at least between a first threshold value and a second threshold value of the turbulence intensity, wherein the boost operational function is defined at a constant pitch angle of at least one blade between the first threshold value and the second threshold value.
