According to the annual wind energy statistics published by the Hellenic Scientific Association for Wind Energy (ELETAEN), Greece''s grid connected wind power capacity exceeded 5.5 GW, reaching
Investment in advanced turbine technology, grid enhancements, and retrofitting of aging assets will be key to unlocking the full potential of Greece''s wind resources.
Wind power is central to Greece''s climate and energy strategy through 2030. The country has more than doubled its renewable electricity output since 2014 and is phasing out coal
Periods with very high wind solar and small hydro penetration (max 92%) received smoothly by the electricity grid throughout the year The positive efect from wind ener-gy on reducing extreme prices
Based on the Statistics, 39 new wind turbines with a total capacity of 125.5 MW were connected to the grid in 2024, corresponding to investments totaling €150 million.
Greece''s push for renewables, grid upgrades, and green PPAs is enhancing its attractiveness, especially in synergy with cross-border projects like the GREGY interconnector with
In 2025 alone, 76 new wind turbines with a combined capacity of 340 MW were connected, representing investments exceeding €420 million. This marks a 6.4% increase compared
5GW of Wind projects are already in operation and connected with the electricity grid and another 2.8GW plan to be connected to the grid by 2030.
Greece connected to the grid 542.8 MW of wind farms in 2023, bringing its cumulative installed wind power generation capacity to 5,226 MW, the latest statistics by the Hellenic Scientific
Greece has rapidly become a world leader in wind and solar energy, reflecting the ongoing investment in the country''s green transformation and the government''s commitment to fighting climate change.
