Will Greece install 900 MW of storage by ?
According to the Greek National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), the nation aims to install 4.3 GW of storage by . Thus far, 900 MW has been allocated via the Greek Regulatory Authority for Energy, Waste, and Water (RAAEY) tenders. Therefore, the remaining share would be delivered under the new plan but without any subsidy support.
Should Greece invest in energy storage facilities?
Currently there is a growing interest for investments in storage facilities in Greece. Licensed projects mostly consist of Li-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS), either stand-alone or integrated in PVs, as well as PHS facilities .
Does Greece have a zero-subsidy battery system?
The much-awaited ministerial decree for zero-subsidy standalone battery systems has been published in Greece. So far, Greece has provided support to 900 MW of standalone storage projects under three previous auctions.
How many storage plants are there in Greece?
Currently there are four (4) storage plants operating in Greece, two open-loop pumped-hydro storage (PHS) stations in the mainland (700 ΜW in total) and two small hybrid RES-storage stations in non-interconnected islands (just 3 MW).
How long should energy storage be in a Greek power system?
Considering the energy arbitrage and flexibility needs of the Greek power system, a mix of short (~2 MWh/MW) and longer (>6 MWh/MW) duration storages has been identified as optimal. In the short run, storage is primarily needed for balancing services and to a smaller degree for limited energy arbitrage.
Is electricity storage a prerequisite for decarbonization of the power sector?
Even though electricity storage is recognized as a prerequisite for the decarbonization of the power sector, the development of storage facilities is still facing legal/regulatory barriers and investment feasibility concerns.
