The Greek energy regulator has awarded 300 MW of new battery storage capacity in the nation's second energy storage tender, split among 11 projects. The tender is part of the country’s 1 GW energy storage auction program. The projects range in size from 8,875 MW/17,75 MWh to 49,9 MW/100 MWh).
Investors will be expected to submit progress reports every three months to ensure timely construction. Greece’s first energy storage tender took place last year. It awarded 12 energy storage projects, or 411,79 ΜW of capacity, with an average price of €49,748/MW per year.
The regulator said the auction was highly competitive, leading to an average tender price of €47,680 ($51,506)/MW per year. Greece’s energy storage auction program awards contracts-for-difference (CfD) over periods of 10 years. The submitted bids were capped at €115,000/MW per year, with the lowest successful bid set at €44,100/MW per year.
Greece’s first energy storage tender took place last year. It awarded 12 energy storage projects, or 411,79 ΜW of capacity, with an average price of €49,748/MW per year. To conclude its energy storage auction program, Greece needs to run a third storage tender to account for the remainder of the program’s 1 GW of capacity.
