Energy exchange examining Corporate PPA prospects

The Greek energy exchange has begun examining the prospect of adopting Corporate PPAs, a new market, as indicated by Wednesday’s kick-off of a pre-feasibility study for a non-mandatory auction platform.

This is purely an initiative of the Greek energy exchange, which, according to information obtained by energypress, wants, through this process, to understand the fundamentals of the market and determine how it could operate in Greece.

Speaking at this week’s Green Deal Greece 2022 conference, organized by TEE, the Technical Chamber of Greece, Manolis Kalaitzakis, the energy exchange’s Director of Strategy and Development, referred to the issue, noting that such a tool would enable smaller producers and consumers who do not possess the required experience and know-how to gain access to PPAs.

The Greek energy exchange, through its study, wants to establish an in-depth opinion, based on Greek market conditions and data, in order to decide whether a Corporate PPA market should exist and determine what it could offer to the country’s energy system.
