Home » News » Renewables » Greece awards 188.9 MW for subsidized battery storage in final auction Greece's third energy storage auction has been completed, with nine projects selected and a capacity of 188.9 MW.
Initially a response to the COVID 19 pandemic, the focus has pivoted to support Greece's green energy transition. The storage auctions themselves require further approval under EU State aid rules. The pipeline of prospective battery storage projects now approaches 27GW, with over 500 projects granted a storage license.
Greece's new battery storage program has taken into account the areas most congested by the output of renewable power stations as well as the kind of renewable projects connected to the grid.
Greece has emerged as one of the countries with the largest pipeline of battery storage projects, but as yet there has been little activity on the ground. This is changing as the long-awaited storage subsidy auctions have started, with the first projects being awarded support for both investment and operating costs.
Greece's third energy storage auction has been completed with nine projects selected. It was the final auction where the state provides subsidies to build battery energy storage systems (BESS). A total of almost 800 MW in capability has been awarded through all three storage auctions.
Overall, following last months public consultation, the Greek ministry of the environment and energy presented a bolder and even more ambitious battery storage program, allowing for longer completion times but retaining the financial and competition guarantees in place.

As renewable energy sources like solar and wind continue to penetrate the grid and companies move to achieve netzero goals, the need for long-duration storage to smooth out intermittency becomes critical. Flow batteries step in to fill this gap, in particular for applications requiring over 10 hours of storage.
We highlighted including Li-Sulfur, solid-state, and flow batteries as important for the future of battery storage. We found flow batteries as especially relevant for ulta-long duration storage, noting their potential for: 1. Separation of power and energy, allowing for flexible and cost-optimized storage capacity.
Flow batteries and regenerative fuel cells have the potential to play a pivotal role in this transformation by enabling greater integration of variable renewable generation and providing resilient, grid-scale energy storage.
Flow batteries generally have high round-trip efficiency (typically 70–85 %) and long cycle life (up to 20,000 cycles or more), making them a reliable energy storage technology . The electrodes in a flow battery play a crucial role in the electrochemical reactions that occur during the charging and discharging process .
A press release by the company states that the vanadium flow battery project has the ability to store and release 700MWh of energy. This system ensures extended energy storage capabilities for various applications. It is designed with scalability in mind, and is poised to support evolving energy demands with unmatched performance.
A recent article in PV Magazine highlights the growing recognition of flow batteries' unique strengths in grid-scale storage. Unlike lithium-ion, flow batteries offer decoupled power and energy, meaning storage capacity can be increased simply by adding more electrolyte.

Traditionally, electrolytes can be divided into three types: aqueous (salts, acid, alkaline), 30–33 non-aqueous (organic solutions, ionic liquids), 34–39 and solid-state electrolytes (inorganic, gel, and polymer electrolytes).
Battery electrolyte is a critical medium that allows lithium ions to move freely between battery electrodes, which is essential for the battery to store and deliver energy. This article guides you through the essential knowledge about battery electrolyte: from the main components, different types to the common preparation methods.
We review common types of battery electrolytes, because different chemistries require different solutions. There are several generic types of electrolytes, which engineers tweak to suit particular applications. Broadly speaking: Electrolytes comprise soluble salts, acids, or other bases.
