Positive and negative news includes exposure of its energy address Commission for the prices in current during the first quarter of 2025.
A first reading of the Commission’s report shows that Greece is again close to the top of the list with the most expensive countries. Specifically, the wholesale price of electricity in our country amounted to 144 euros/MWh, which ranks it seventh pan -European. By comparison, the average in the EU was found at 100 euros.
However, it should be noted that SE Europe, along with Italy, is characterized by even higher prices, up to 149 euros. By extension, it is obvious that neighboring markets are standing up.
Another interesting point that has pointed out the RIS is that Greece is now a exporter of electricity, because it is a little cheaper than its neighbors.
Task Force met
The cross -border character of the phenomenon has been strongly concerned with the leadership of the ministry. Yesterday, Monday, the first meeting of the European Task Force was set up to offer solutions.
From the Greek point of view, issues such as the better utilization of existing interconnections, the proper maintenance planning of the ubiquitous production units, as well as the optimal coordination between the administrators of the area.
Finally, it should be noted that so far this summer the very high prices (up to 200 euros) have not appeared this summer we saw last July and August. Despite the heat that appeared this week, the price on Monday was 115 euros and today, Tuesday, it is 104 euros.
