There is provided an adjustable integral component in a feedback loop of a closed loop control system. The closed loop control system controls an output signal of an electric generator. The adjustable integral component provides an integral signal. The integral signal is proportional to the output signal in a first operational mode. The integral signal is proportional to a time integral of an output signal in a second operational mode. According to another aspect of the invention there is provided a non-linear component in a feedback loop of a closed loop control system. The closed loop control system controls an output signal of an electric generator. The electric generator having non-linear characteristics. The feedback loop has an error signal, of which the output signal is responsive to. The non-linear component receives a load signal and provides a non-linear signal related to the non-linear characteristics of the electric generator. The error signal is responsive to the non-linear signal. According to another aspect of the invention, there is provided a method of controlling a system variable in a control system for an electric generator. The output signal of the electric generator is sensed and a sample signal is provided thereof. The sample signal is compared to be below a threshold value, and accordingly an adjustable impedance is adjusted to be substantially resistive. A proportional signal and integral signal that are proportional to the sample signal are provided. A time derivative is taken of the sample signal to provide a differential signal. An error signal is generated by providing a difference between a reference signal and a sum of the proportional signal, the integral signal and the differential signal. The output signal is then adjusted based on the error signal, by driving the output signal towards the set-point value. The sample signal is then compared to be above the threshold value, and accordingly the adjustable impedance is adjusted to be substantially capacitive. The integral signal now being representative of a time integral of the sample signal.
