The Greek government is providing attractive incentives: depending on plant size, investors receive 0.45 to 0.50 per kWh for their solar plants. The Greek government aims to reach a renewable energy share of 18 percent by 2020, with a 40-fold increase solar output by 2030.
This is a milestone for Conergy Greece to date according to the company. Using its Conergy system technology, the company is emerging into the Greek photovoltaics market.
