4 FAQs about Introduction to the greek energy storage power station

What is the res penetration target for the power system of Greece?

The power system of Greece is used as a case study, adopting a RES penetration target of around 60%, as foreseen in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) for 2030, . The generation portfolio of the Greek system in the mid-term horizon to 2030 is well-defined in the NECP, with storage being the main asset yet to be identified.

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.

How does storage work on Greece's islands?

The introduction and development of storage on Greece’s islands that are that are not connected to the mainland power system is quite different, as it is currently only possible via hybrid stations (i.e. virtual production stations consisting of renewable energy resources and storage units operating as single distribution entities).

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 .
