The energy sector in Greece is undergoing a significant transformation driven by escalating energy costs, regulatory shifts, and an increasing emphasis on sustainability. For businesses, especially those in energy-intensive industries such as manufacturing, hospitality, and metals, this evolving landscape presents both challenges and opportunities. To navigate these changes effectively, businesses must explore innovative solutions that can reduce operational costs while enhancing energy efficiency and sustainability.
The Evolving Energy Market
The Greek government has implemented a series of initiatives to promote renewable energy adoption and reduce dependency on traditional energy sources. Central to these efforts are the Net Billing system and subsidies for energy storage systems, which aim to incentivize businesses to invest in renewable energy technologies.
Net Billing for Photovoltaic Systems
Net Billing is a financial mechanism that allows businesses to offset their electricity consumption by producing their own energy through photovoltaic (PV) systems. Specifically, for systems up to 200 kWp, businesses can:
- Generate electricity on-site and use it directly, reducing dependency on the grid.
- Free net-billing licensing application: Renel undertakes the process for free, if your application is approved and you proceed with the installation with us.
- Feed excess energy back into the grid, receiving financial credits that lower overall energy bills.
- Enhance their energy independence, shielding themselves from fluctuating energy prices.
This approach not only contributes to cost savings but also supports the national goals of reducing carbon emissions and promoting green energy.
Subsidies for Battery Storage Systems
In addition to Net Billing, the Greek government offers subsidies for battery storage systems. These systems enable businesses to store excess energy generated during peak production times and use it when energy demand is high or when solar production is low. Key benefits include:
- Improved energy security and reliability.
- Reduced peak demand charges, further lowering energy costs.
- Enhanced capability to manage energy consumption more effectively.
Businesses can receive up to 50% in subsidies for these systems, making the initial investment more affordable and accelerating the return on investment.
