Become a Photovoltaic energy producer and increase your revenue by selling electricity to the grid

Your photovoltaic system generates electricity that is injected directly into the grid using the PPC myEnergy SolarShare solution (Rooftop Photovoltaics). The electricity generated is sold to the Energy Network at a fixed price of 87€/MWh (Government Gazette B 6351/2021), whereas the energy consumed by your home is the "absorbed" energy received from the Network, for which you will continue to pay every month.

The metering of the energy produced by the Photovoltaic System that is injected into the grid in its entirety occurs concurrently with the metering of the energy consumed, i.e. the same metering cycle is used for both. Payment for the energy produced, on the other hand, is made on the clearing electricity bill (and not on the bill issued against it). If the readings cannot be obtained on the scheduled metering date for any reason, the clearing will be completed as soon as the next regular metering is performed. Please see the link for more information on the Network Operator's exact metering procedure.

Yes, if you have an active household electricity supply in your name and free space (roof, roof, pergola). You must own and have legal use of the space where you want to install a PV System. According to the YA, a portion of the building's thermal needs for hot water must be met using renewable energy sources (e.g. existence of a solar water heater, solar thermal, etc.). Furthermore, the Photovoltaic System installation project must not be included in any funding programme (e.g. under the OP of the Partnership Agreement).

It is recommended for residences with low annual electricity consumption (4.000kWh), such as vacation homes, and requires approximately 45 m² of available space for a 6kW Photovoltaic System). Furthermore, the written consent of the house's co-owners (especially if it's a block of flats) is required for the commitment of the space on the terrace or roof for the installation of the Photovoltaic System that will be connected to your supply.

The photovoltaic panels generate electricity, which is then converted by the inverter and injected back into the grid.

With PPC myEnergy SolarShare, you can install a Photovoltaic System with a maximum power of 6kW in an interconnected network (or up to 3kW in the non-interconnected network). For the next 20 years, all the electricity generated will be sold to the grid at a fixed price of 0.087€/kWh. The collected amount is deducted from the total amount owed on each clearing account of the electricity supplier with whom you have a contract. A 6kW PV system can generate around 9,000kWh per year. With the Ministerial Decision's compensation of 87 €/MWh, the annual compensation amount can reach 783€. If the total Actual electricity bill is in credit, the owed amount is credited to the owner of the PV System's bank account on the electricity bill's expiry date.

We provide our customers with complete Photovoltaic System solutions, which include:

1. All-round service for the continuous operation of a Photovoltaic System in your home. From the initial customised proposal to installation, grid connection, and post-installation supervision to ensure smooth operation
2. One-year insurance coverage. Insurance of equipment against natural disaster damage and compensation for lost revenue during the damage period. The insurance policy is activated following HEDNO'S connecting of the Photovoltaic System to the grid
3. One-year guarantee of proper PV system operation
4. Live visualisation of PV system production and consumption at your home (provided through PPC myEnergy Coach)
5. Remote monitoring by a qualified technician for immediate notification of failure to the customer (1-year duration)
6. Premium equipment from reputable and certified manufacturers
7. Access to our own stock of Photovoltaic Systems, allowing for immediate installation

You can always switch providers, but a new net metering contract must be signed with your new provider for the time remaining until the 20-year period from the date of your PV system's initial grid connection expires.

The Photovoltaic Panels installed on terraces are supported by special tie rods that are insulated with special chemical resins, preventing any water inflow. The Photovoltaic Panels installed on roofs are supported with special P-type brackets under specific tiles, and any holes drilled are also insulated with special resins.

On 02.05.2023, HEDNO launched a platform where applications for Photovoltaic Energy Net Metering Systems grants may be submitted. It applies to Photovoltaic Systems with an installed capacity of up to 10.8 kW and a maximum production capacity of 10 kW in the Distribution Network, including the Non-interconnected Islands Distribution Network. To use the computerized platform, the applicant must enter their TaxisNet codes using GIS.

To gain access to the platform, visit pvstegi.gov.gr/.

An important prerequisite for the grant application is that it be preceded by a Connection Agreement with HEDNO, which can be found here: pvstegi.gov.gr/.

• Complete the steps on dei.gr Photovoltaic System personalised offer tool
• Accept the offer customised to the needs specified in the tool
• Contact a qualified, personal PPC consultant who will explain the offer and go over all of the details of buying and installing a Photovoltaic System in your home
• If you agree with our proposal, you must accept, sign, and return the Offer - Contract to the following email address: myenergysolar@dei.gr
• A qualified PPC consultant will contact you to assist you in preparing the Photovoltaic System Installation Approval File for submission to HEDNO via pvstegi.gov.gr, using the interested party's TaxisNet codes who must make a down payment on installation and equipment costs at the same time
  Note: To apply for a connection contract with HEDNO, an administrative fee of 370€ without VAT must be remitted to HEDNO
• If HEDNO responds positively, the signed Connection Agreement will be registered on the HEDNO platform at pvstegi.gov.gr using the interested party's TaxisNet codes.
• The required documents must then be registered on the HEDNO platform ape.deddie.gr/apewebportal-ws/, in order to complete the photovoltaic station's connection and activation

Following HEDNO’s positive response, the following steps must be taken:

• Sign the Connection Contract by the Self-producer and post it on pvstegi.gov.gr/
• Following the signing of the Connection Contract, HEDNO builds the connection works within one month of signing the Connection Contract, assuming no new network works, other than meter installation, are required
• Contact a qualified PPC consultant to schedule the installation of the PV System
• Repayment of installation and equipment costs
• Delivery and installation of the equipment
• Submit an application to the Electricity Supplier representing the consumption meter with which the energy offset will be made for the preparation of the Gross Metering Agreement
• Sign a Settlement Agreement between the Self-producer and the Supplier
• Application for photovoltaic power plant connection activation (to HEDNO)
• Activation of the PV plant connection

Absorbed electrical energy: Electricity absorbed from the grid and consumed in the installation is referred to as absorbed electrical energy.

Recorded electrical energy: The energy produced by the PV system and pushed to the grid because there were no corresponding consumptions by the house to absorb the PV system's generation.

Self-consumption: Self-consumption is when the electricity generated by PV is used directly to meet the energy needs of the home.

Synchronisation: Synchronisation refers to the situation in which the electricity generated by the PV system is consumed at the precise moment in time at the customer's installation. The percentage of energy produced that is used to directly meet the energy needs of the installation relative to the total consumption of the installation is used to calculate the synchronisation. The self-generator is charged neither electricity supply costs nor grid usage costs for the electricity self-consumed in the residence with a PV system.

Produced energy: the total amount of energy produced by the PV system, which can be used directly for home needs or injected into the grid.

It is recommended to install special equipment (solar optimizers) to improve the performance of the PV System when shadows are created at the installation site or when PV panels are placed with different orientations. The cost of the specialised equipment is determined on an individual basis.
