Can't really offer a solution, any self respecting dump regulator would never let this happen. If you have to build something to cure this problem you might as well build your own controller.

The problem is worse with large turbines where the instantaneous increase in power in a gust can be very fast indeed. Even a large battery bank will respond quickly when charged enough to be working in the surface charge region.

Perhaps reduce the absorbtion charge volts a bit and increase the float to compensate.
