Background
In April 2020, the Greek Regulatory Authority for Energy (RAE) granted four licenses for the construction of wind farms on Kythera. It is expected that more licenses will be granted soon; the theoretical maximum number of wind turbines permitted on Kythera is 147. The posts and information in this section record the development of the wind farm projects going back to 2007, when the first applications were submitted.
