Mytilineos is looking to transfer its global experience of solar and storage project development to help decarbonise the Greek electrical system and hit 3GW of PV capacity by 2030.
Greek industrial group Mytilineos has acquired a portfolio of solar and battery storage projects in a €56 million transaction it says “heralds the transition to a new era” for the company.
Enel Green Power has begun a new programme to explore how to successfully integrate arable and pastoral farming activities alongside large-scale solar PV projects.
Greek industrial group Mytilineos said 2020 turnover from its renewables and storage development unit was around 40% lower than forecasted due to contracting and construction delays as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
The renewable energy arm of Greek utility Public Power Corporation (PPC) is looking to increase collaborations with major solar industry players to fast-track its aim of installing 2.3GW of PV parks.
Solar parks with a total capacity of 2.3GW will be developed in Greece as part of a €5 billion (US$5.94 billion) roadmap to support the phase-out of coal generation by 2028.
Berlin awards contracts of tech-neutral auction where only PV submitted bids, while Athens announces new 482.03MW PV exercise in July after price-smashing April tender.
PV winners of 200MW, 70MW and others help technology scoop up 350MW of 503MW of premium tariff contracts, bringing fresh momentum to country aiming to reach 7.7GW of PV by 2030.
