POWER
BulletPower BulletsEnergy BulletsCommodities

Greece plans to improve grid access for small and medium-sized renewable energy investors, with changes to connection evaluations and new energy storage initiatives, Deputy Energy Minister Alexandra Sdoukou said, cited by EnergyPress.

  • The move will allow Group C connection requests to be evaluated alongside Group B requests by the power grid operator, IPTO – where Group B requests involve RES projects for renewable PPAs.
  • The ministry is also focusing on energy storage, with plans to finalise a decision inviting investors to develop standalone battery projects, offering licensing incentives but no subsidies.
  • An additional plan will provide RES investors with licensing incentives for adding batteries to existing PV units.
  • RES capacity in Greece reached record levels in 2024, along with higher levels of RES curtailments, Sdoukou added.
