    FAQs about Greece photovoltaic energy storage policy design

    How much photovoltaic capacity does Greece have?

    As of December 2013, the total installed photovoltaic capacity in Greece reached 2,419.2 MWp of which 987.2 MWp were installed in the period between January–September 2013 despite the financial crisis. Greece ranks 5th worldwide with regard to per capita installed PV capacity.

    How much is a feed-in tariff for a solar project in Greece?

    The new law has also put an end to feed-in tariffs for solar projects up to 500 kW in size. Developers of such installations with the necessary licenses can sign contracts with Greece's Renewable Energy Sources Operator and sell the generated electricity in the electricity market at a feed-in tariff of €65.73 ($71.37)/MWh.

    Why is Greece focusing on energy storage?

    Greece has been actively focusing on energy storage since the emergence of the RES “boom” in 2020. The country recognised the pivotal role of energy storage in the energy transition and emphasised its importance in the first iteration of the country's National Energy and Climate Plan in 2019.

    Does Greece have a power auction policy?

    This policy remains in place today, but at the end of April, the Greek parliament voted in a new law (Law 5106/2024) that allows the government to hold auctions for asset owners who are willing to accept higher power curtailment rates for their projects than usual, as well as installations that include energy storage systems.

    How does Greece's new electricity curtailment law work?

    The new law does not define the percentage of electricity curtailment for awarded projects in future auctions. Instead, the new law allows Greece's Ministry of the Environment and Energy to separately set the percentage of electricity curtailment for awarded projects for each new auction.

    Who is eligible to participate in the first energy storage auction?

    To be eligible to participate in the first auction, projects must hold a valid Energy Storage Licence while a set of other eligibility criteria (including soundness of the technology used and minimum power injection capacity) must be met.
