Greece''s energy and climate policies are centred on achieving net zero emissions by 2050 while ensuring energy security, improving economic competitiveness and protecting vulnerable consumers. The National Energy and Climate Plan
This outshined the expected 13% share of solar in meeting gross electricity demand. Considering current trends, Greece is revising its 2030 national solar target: the new draft target is 13.4 GW by the end of the decade, almost doubling the one previously set. The major bottleneck remains the availability of grid capacity.
The government in Greece is looking to provide financial support for up to 900MW of energy storage capacity through a tender as previously reported by Energy-Storage.news. The country has an overall energy storage deployment goal of 3GW by 2030 to facilitate a 70% renewable energy target.
In 2022, 1.4 GW of new PV projects were connected to the grid, bringing the cumulative capacity to 5.5 GW. This was the best performance ever for the Greek solar sector. Still, it looks modest if you compare it with the expected performance of the market in 2023 which should bring online around 1.7 GW of solar capacity.
In 2022, the Greek Parliament also passed a thorough regulatory framework for storage. Large-scale storage are selected through a bidding process, with a total tendered power capacity of 1,000 MW and at least 2.6 GWh of storage capacity.
The bright weather across the country helped solar PV to contribute to some 13.6% of total Greek electricity production in 2022, breaking yet another record. This outshined the expected 13% share of solar in meeting gross electricity demand.
