The focus of this paper is a wind farm located in Calabria (Italy). The objective is to implement a support tool (a simulator) to be used for carrying out specific analyses in order to test system performance in terms of energy production under different wake models. After the modeling phase, the simulation model has been validated. Three different wake models are introduced to evaluate system power loss due to near and far wake effects in complex terrain.
