This data tool compares European electricity prices, carbon prices and the cost of generating electricity using fossil fuels and renewables. Where possible, data is provided by country.
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 .
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.
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).
The production of coal in Greece also fell to a record low of 0.05 exajoules and was not consumed for 28 consecutive days that same year. As of 2022, electricity generation in Greece stood at 53 terawatt hours of electricity, making the country rank 15th in electricity production in Europe.
And for the first time, Greece became a net exporter of electricity in 2024, sending surplus power to neighboring countries through an expanding regional grid. Renewable energy is booming in Greece. By the end of 2024: Solar PV capacity topped 9 GW, with new projects being added at record pace.
As of 2022, electricity generation in Greece stood at 53 terawatt hours of electricity, making the country rank 15th in electricity production in Europe. Discover all statistics and data on Electricity in Greece now on statista.com!
