The Ministry of Environment and Energy announces an extension to the deadline for completing the physical scope of projects under the “Photovoltaics on the Roof” and “Photovoltaics in the Field” Programs. For these programs, the deadline from 30 June 2025 is extended through 31 December 2025.
The extension is intended to give households and farmers approved under the Programs sufficient time to implement their projects, activate their systems, and receive their subsidies. The electricity produced by the photovoltaic stations will enable them to cover part or even all of their consumption and reduce their energy costs.
Please note:
Completion of the physical scope means the construction and activation of photovoltaic stations with or without a storage system. In all cases, for Beneficiaries, the deadline for implementing the station and the reservation of electrical capacity are set out in the Connection Agreement entered into by the Beneficiaries and the Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (DEDDIE). However, this implementation deadline may under no circumstances extend beyond the deadline for completing the physical scope, as extended, in order for the approved subsidy allocated to the Beneficiaries to be granted.
As a reminder:
- The Programs, with a total budget of 238 million euros, aim to provide subsidies to households—primarily vulnerable members of our community—as well as to farmers registered in the Register of Farmers and Agricultural Holdings, for the installation of photovoltaic stations with or without a battery for self-consumption.
- More than 120 million euros have already been disbursed to Beneficiaries under the “Photovoltaics on the Roof” Program, of which more than 30 million euros have gone to vulnerable households.
- More than 3.000 farmers have been approved under the “Photovoltaics in the Field” Program, with a total budget of 30 million euros.
For more information, interested parties can visit the Programs’ official website (https://pvstegi.gov.gr) or call 2144050700.
The above Programs are being implemented under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece 2.0”, with funding from the European Union – NextGeneration EU. DEDDIE is the Programs’ management and implementation body.
