Author :
Stefanakis, John
Abstract :
This paper describes the main features of the isolated power system of Crete, the largest Greek island with the highest rate of load growth. The paper focuses on the integration of significant share of wind power and the operating experience accumulated during the first years of the wind farm operation.
