Initially a response to the COVID 19 pandemic, the focus has pivoted to support Greece’s green energy transition. The storage auctions themselves require further approval under EU State aid rules. The pipeline of prospective battery storage projects now approaches 27GW, with over 500 projects granted a storage license.
The measures contribute to achieving Greece's climate and energy targets, as well as the objectives of the European Green Deal and 'Fit for 55' package, by enabling the integration of renewable energy sources in the Greek electricity system.
The pipeline of prospective battery storage projects now approaches 27GW, with over 500 projects granted a storage license. With support for 1GW of battery capacity to be auctioned 3 tranches this year, the results for the first auction of 400MW have been announced with a few winners, but lots of losers.
The need for storage in Greece will accelerate rapidly over the next decade as renewables targets are revised upwards and coal plants are closed. The pivot to gas, a core part of the country’s energy strategy just a couple of years ago, has been upended by the disruption to supplies and price volatility caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
