Current policy issues in Greece
Long term energy planning for 2030 and beyond – A new committee has been recently established by the Government
Finalization of the mechanism for the auctions – First auction expected for summer – Fears that the market will slow down after 2019/20
Announced modification of the funding mechanism for RES payments – The current one is based on (i) a levy on the consumers and (ii) a charge on the suppliers based on the value they gain from RES (avoided cost)
Announced modification of the RES Spatial Planning Framework – Fears for restrictive changes
Debate for the compatibility of wind energy with biodiversity and Natura network – Examination of several complaints by the EC
Conflicts with Civil Aviation and Military radars – Crucial for wind energy in Aegean Sea
