The further deterioration of the commercial viability of the projects RES The European and domestic market is afraid of the facts in the facts in Spain and the tsunami they have caused across Europe.
The recent Blackout of Spain, Portugal and some areas of France and the corresponding to Northern Macedonia a few days ago, led to alert and review the parameters on the basis of which the network must operate. The Spanish authorities have already rushed to add about 2 GW of gas to the daily mix of power generation, with the aim of boosting stability and having sufficient inactivity if needed. Naturally, the increased participation of the gas displaces the RES, especially photovoltaics.
Green units are already confronted with high production cuts due to low demand and are now still a blow due to the forced reduction of their percentage in the mixture.
On the occasion of the above, the question is whether ADMIE will find it appropriate to take similar measures in the future, as the penetration of RES will be increasingly moving towards 80% at the end of this decade in our country.
Market estimates refer to cuts at least 20 – 25% in 2030 even with the addition of storage units, as RES facilities will overcome the national target.
One realizes that if an additional restriction is selected for the protection of the blackout system, then the relevant investments are significantly affected and business plans are overturned.
However, such a direction does not appear. On the contrary, the manager has already made moves that stresses that they are shielding the Greek network and maintains a very conservative stance. It is also worth mentioning that in earlier cases of problems in Greece, they were adequately addressed.
However, the RES market closely monitors developments and takes seriously what is happening abroad, especially in our region. Interconnections play a crucial role in managing extraordinary disorders, so the unpreparedness of one country can affect the other. That is to say, Greece may have done the right thing and find it exposed at a critical time due to the unavailability of a cross -border line that would otherwise help.
All of this is, of course, just a small example of the complexity that characterizes the modern electrical system and the difficult shipping that managers are called upon to perform.
