The overall target is broken down further into sub-targets of 40% RES in gross electricity consumption, 20% RES in final energy consumption for heating and cooling, and 10% RES in final energy consumption for transport until 2020.According to the third progress report on the promotion and use of energy from renewable sources in Greece which was submitted under Article 22 of Directive 2009/28/EC to the European Commission in April 2016, the latest figures for the share of RES in gross final energy consumption indicate that Greece is on track for reaching its national RES targets for 2020. Gross national electricity consumption in 2016 was roughly 50.1 TWh, including transmission and distribution losses of about 2.9%.
The reference tariffs are determined by capacity categories for the different RES technologies. If the difference is positive, meaning that more RES electricity is produced and fed into the grid than self-consumed, this surplus is credited to the next electricity bill.


LONGi leads the solar PV industry to a new height with product innovations and optimized power-cost ratio with breakthrough monocrystalline technologies. For RES projects that fall under the FIT scheme, the reference tariff is equal to the FIT.

However, as of 2020, growth in solar energy capacity is once again growing quickly. Specific targets for RES electricity share (40%), RES heating and cooling share (20%), and RES transport share (10%) have been defined in order to achieve the national RES target until 2020. Currently there are no articles under this heading.

Innovation and sustainable development are two of LONGi’s core values.Sungrow is a world-class technology provider, specialized in PV inverters and energy storage equipment for residential, commercial & industrial and utility-scale PV power plants. Project Objectives. A key part of this process will be developing a Imported energy sources are mainly petroleum products that account for 44% of total energy consumption and natural gas with a share of around 17%. The largest networking & inspirational platform in Greece for market leaders in solar energy On Thursday 19 November 2020, Solarplaza will organize the 3nd edition of the leading business and strategic platform for the Greek solar energy market: The Solar Future Greece '20.

Virtual net-metering is defined under Article 2 of Law 3468/2006 as the offsetting of electricity generated by a RES auto-producer and consumed by installations of the auto-producer, at least one of which is not located in the same or adjacent area as the RES plant or uses a different power supply. In particular, production licenses issued prior to the entry into force of Law 3468/2006, which were granted for a period of fifteen years, may be extended under certain conditions up to a maximum of ten years in order to harmonize their total duration with the duration of the PPA. The priority and top objective of Greek energy policy is to safeguard and manage energy resources in a manner which secures the smooth, uninterrupted and reliable supply of the nation’s energy needs and access for all users to affordable, secure energy. Imported energy sources are mainly petroleum products that account for 44% of total energy consumption and natural gas with a share of ar…

The Special Fee for the Reduction of Greenhouse Gases Emissions (ETMEAR) is a levy imposed on each unit of electricity consumed which is used for the financing of the RES and CHP support scheme in Greece. More than 3 MWp solar systems have been installed in Greece, contributing to improve the country’s renewable energy footprint through 2,671 tons of CO 2 savings. This means that all other regulated charges, such as network charges and ETMEAR, are not included in this balanced energy.

The average cost of RES electricity production accounted for 159.2 €/MWh in 2016 and down from 200 €/MWh in 2014. It can also undertake the commercial operations** management of plants. 24461 on the 31Law 4414/2016 provides for the extension of the national net-metering scheme to other technologies (PV, small wind, biomass/biogas/bioliquid, small hydro-power, CHP) as well as the establishment of the possibility of virtual net-metering for solar PV and small wind projects installed by legal persons pursuing welfare objectives or other purposes in the public interest as well as farmers and agricultural holdings. The time period between application and entry into operation of the systems varies considerably between 1.2 and 18 months with an average of 5 months.
