2023 will be the "milestone" year for the implementation of "green" investments in the field of energy storage. In particular, it is expected that the first tender will be held by the end of next year, in order to "lock in" the operational and investment support for energy storage units, which must be implemented by the end of 2025. This was stated yesterday by the president of the Regulatory Authority for Energy (RAE), Mr. Athanasios Dagoumas, speaking at the workshop "Energy Storage and Grid Management for Maximum RES Use" organized by the Energy Institute of Southeast Europe (IENE).

The long-awaited arrangements that will support investments in electricity storage stations with a total capacity of 3.5 GW by the end of the decade, as well as 10 pilot floating photovoltaic parks are included, among others, in the Renewable Energy Sources (RES) multi-bill, which was put up for public consultation yesterday until May 10.
