On October 10, 2022, the Greek power grid operator ADMIE announced that during the period from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on October 7, 2022, 100% of the country's renewable energy power generation capacity met all the country's power needs, which was the first time in the country's power system history.

According to the statistical data of ADMIE, between 11:00 and 16:00 on October 7, the renewable energy power generation in Greece reached 3106 MW, exceeding the net load of the transmission system, a record high.

ADMIE stressed in a statement that Greece needs to further develop and strengthen its power network to allow more renewable energy to penetrate into its energy mix. The company said: "At present, the investment interest in renewable energy and new green energy is increasing, and the key to maintain this state is to develop power network and strengthen project construction. Through these projects, we can create enough power space to make renewable energy more penetrated into the energy structure. ADMIE's 10-year investment plan includes that the transmission capacity of green energy devices will be increased from the current 17 The gigawatts increased to about 28 gigawatts. "

ADMIE also pointed out that the increased participation of renewable energy in the energy mix has not only produced significant environmental benefits, but also brought huge economic benefits to consumers. As the Greek Wind Energy Science Association pointed out on October 7, in October, the electricity cost of consumers was 94 euros per megawatt hour for wind power plants, 190 euros for lignite power plants and 499 euros for natural gas plants.

Like other European countries, Greece reduced its dependence on Russian natural gas by increasing LNG imports. At the same time, Greece has also increased its coal mining efforts and postponed its previous decarbonization plan.Editor/Xing Wentao
