Greece's third energy storage auction has been completed with nine projects selected. It was the final auction where the state provides subsidies to build battery energy storage systems (BESS). A total of almost 800 MW in capability has been awarded through all three storage auctions.
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 .
The much-awaited ministerial decree for zero-subsidy standalone battery systems has been published in Greece. So far, Greece has provided support to 900 MW of standalone storage projects under three previous auctions.
It was the final auction where the state provides subsidies to build battery energy storage systems (BESS). A total of almost 800 MW in capability has been awarded through all three storage auctions. In the latest bidding, nine projects with a four-hour storage duration have been selected for a total capacity of 188.9 MW.
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.

[PDF Version]In this study, an evaluation framework for retrofitting traditional electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) into photovoltaic-energy storage-integrated charging stations (PV-ES-I CSs) to improve green and low-carbon energy supply systems is proposed.
As shown in Fig. 1, a photovoltaic-energy storage-integrated charging station (PV-ES-I CS) is a novel component of renewable energy charging infrastructure that combines distributed PV, battery energy storage systems, and EV charging systems.
Furthermore, Liu et al. (2023) employed a proxy-based optimization method and determined that compared to traditional charging stations, a novel PV + energy storage transit system can reduce the annual charging cost and carbon emissions for a single bus route by an average of 17.6 % and 8.8 %, respectively.
Currently, some experts and scholars have begun to study the siting issues of photovoltaic charging stations (PVCSs) or PV-ES-I CSs in built environments, as shown in Table 1. For instance, Ahmed et al. (2022) proposed a planning model to determine the optimal size and location of PVCSs.
To this end, this article proposes a multi-energy complementary smart charging station that adapts to the future power grid. It combines photovoltaic, energy storage and charging stations, and uses energy storage systems to cut peaks and fill valleys to effectively balance the load fluctuations of charging stations.
Since irradiance is the primary catalyst for energy production in PV systems (Nasrin et al., 2018), the environmental analysis plugin Ladybug, which is widely used in Rhinoceros software, was applied to simulate solar irradiance for the selected 295 EVCSs to assess the solar energy generation potential of each charging station.
It introduces a complete legal regime for energy storage solutions, allowing hybridisation with existing plants and prior checks on storage capacity.
