New report by The Green Tank shows that the installation of 272-300 MW photovoltaics by energy communities combined with electricity storage systems using the available financial resources can fully cover the needs of approximately 245,000 residential consumers in Greece’s lignite areas, mitigating the lack of grid space.
The fifth newsletter of the Green Tank for the developments of the last six months (January – July 2023) related to the Just Transition of lignite regions in Greece and in Europe has been published.
The annual analysis by The Green Tank shows that compared to 2005, Greece recorded a 57.1% reduction in emissions from all installations in the sectors of electricity and heat generation and energy-intensive industry covered by the ETS, ranking 6th in the EU-27 and 12 places higher than the EU-27 average (-37.9%).
