It is described a system for mitigating an electric unbalance of a three-phase current at a Point of Common Coupling (120) being located between a wind farm (100) comprising a plurality of wind turbines (110) and a power grid. The system comprises (a) a measurement device (122) for measuring the electric unbalance at the Point of Common Coupling (120) and for providing a measurement signal (122a) being indicative for the measured electric unbalance and (b) a central wind farm controller (130) for controlling the operation of the plurality of wind turbines (110). The central wind farm controller (130) is coupled to the measurement device (122). In response to the measurement signal (122a) the central wind farm controller (130) is configured for providing a control signal (130a) for mitigating the electric unbalance at the Point of Common Coupling (120). It is further described a corresponding method for mitigating an electric unbalance of a three-phase current and a computer program for controlling and/or for carrying out the described method.
