Energy in Greece: Highlights & Prospects

Prospects Highlights

Energy Sector • Energy is accounting for 4% of the country’s

economic activity • Electricity is the largest sub-sector representing

c 53% of the sector’s economic output, followed by Petroleum (44%) and natural gas (2%)

Electricity • Total installed capacity of c. 18GW mostly

dependent on lignite, natural gas and RES, c. 25% each

• Renewable energy production capacity of c.5.2GW, supported by a new feed in premium framework

• Transmission system of c.16,000 km of high-voltage lines

• Distribution system of c.226,500 km of medium/low voltage lines

• Vertical integrated Public Power Corporation (“PPC”) dominating the supply chain

Petroleum/Natural Gas • Limited fossil fuel reserves but large scale

seismic research for natural gas is currently under way

• 2 refining companies operating in Greece with an annual capacity in the area of 26m metric tons

Electricity Demand (National Grid, Interonnected)

Electricity Generation

• EU commission is pushing for lignite market deregulation

• Significant renewable energy resources potential

• With the current unbundling reform and deregulation of the Greek power market several independent power producers have entered or are in the process of entering the market

Electricity transmission/Distribution

• Significant need for investment in electricity networks upgrade, including the interconnection of islands and Crete with the main Grid

Petroleum/Natural Gas

• Demand for new infrastructure in natural gas transmission (liquid gas terminals, gas pipelines, gas distribution systems)

• International Tenders for the exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbon Offshore & Onshore blocks in Greece.

Electricity Production in the Greek System: by source

The Greek RES market has grown with a very strong pace. Total

installed capacity stood at 1,06 GW in 2008 and 4,6 GW in2015, 334% increase within the last 7

years!

During the economic crisis in Greece, the RES sector was one of the very

few growing economic sectors where investments were made and

employment was created

The Greek PV Market at a ‘glance’

Source: HELAPCO

Greece ranks 8th worldwide with regard to installed PV capacity per capita.

PV’s covered 7.1% of total electricity demand in 2015, ranking Greece as #2 country worldwide in terms of PV contribution to total energy consumed

In 2014, the country installed only about 17 MWp. The sharp drop in new installations was mainly the result of a freeze on the receiving and processing of new applications for PV systems from August 2012 until April 2014. PV & Wind absorbed the largest share of RES investment, 93% of total over the period 2006-2013 with EUR 5.4 billion for PV and EUR 1.7 billion for Wind

Thus installed capacity in RES grew at an average rate of 28% p.a. between 2006 and 2013

In April 2014, Greece has set a new target for PV until 2020, aiming at the

installation of 2 more GWp of PV until the end of

the decade.

• Bound by EU regulations and Kyoto Protocol agreements

• National target for RES at 20% on final energy consumption by 2020, 2% above the mandatory levels of 2009/28/EC, 40% electricity production from RES –NEW TARGETS FOR PV

• 20 – year PPA (power purchase agreement)-Revised Feed in Premium compensation scheme for RES electricity producers ratified this summer and activated after 2017

• Ideal conditions for wind and solar energy, in 2012 the average capacity factor of wind parks was estimated at 26%, coupled with increased productivity of new wind turbines leading to enhanced performance

• The system operator deploys a long term plan for the development of the electricity network, strengthening the network and facilitating additional energy capacity through RES

• The installation cost for wind parks in Greece is considerably lower, compared with other renewable energy technologies (EUR 1,200/kW in the interconnected system, EUR 1,400/kW in the non interconnected islands)

• Highly-skilled, world-renowned RES personnel available for hiring

• Availability of investment incentives, depending on project scale and tech

The strengths of the Greek RES market create a very attractive business opportunity

The Greek RES Market is expected to grow significantly

Source: Hellenic Association of Photovaltaic Companies

• In 2020 1 MW out of 3 MW should come from RES

• A new target of 2GW for 2020 was set for PVs in 2014

• The infrastructure cost to meet targets represents 1/3 of the

penalty to be paid by Greeks in case the targets are not met

National Action Plan for RES (2010-2020) In 2010 Greece endorsed its National Action Plan for Renewable Energy Sources (time frame 2010- 2020). It is an ambitious plan aiming to reform the county’s energy sector so that 20% of the primary energy use is coming from RES by 2020 (penetration level: 40% electricity, 20% heat and 10% transport) In the electricity sector, major RES players are going to be Wind and PV (7.5 and 4.2 GW target values for 2020). This does not exclude additional contributions from other RES e.g. biomass, geothermal energy and concentrated solar power

Investments needed (2010-2020)

The overall investments needed in the energy sector are estimated to 22.2 billion euro for the 2010-2020 timeframe. From these 16.5 will go to new RES capacity, nearly 7 billion to wind, 5.5 billion to PV, 1.6 billion to pump storage for supporting the variable RES production, 1.1 billion to solar heating and cooling, 0.5 billion to biomass and biogas projects. On fossil fuels, Greece will spend 2.1 billion euro for new «clean coal» (lignite in our case) power plants while 3.3 billion will be invested in natural gas facilities Details of the total budget needed for 2010-2020 are shown on the table
