An additional €20m is being invested in the production of lithium-ion batteries, with the installation of three highly automated assembly lines for lithium modules and complete lithium battery systems, as well as one assembly line for prototyping and R&D purposes.
Initially a response to the COVID 19 pandemic, the focus has pivoted to support Greece’s green energy transition. The storage auctions themselves require further approval under EU State aid rules. The pipeline of prospective battery storage projects now approaches 27GW, with over 500 projects granted a storage license.
With more than 12 years of experience in lithium and a top R&D team, Sunlight entered the lithium market with Li.ON FORCE, the first line of “smart” lithium batteries for electrical Industrial Vehicles (eIVs).
The upgrade will increase annual production capacity of lead-acid motive power products from 4GWh to 5.3GWh gradually until Q3 2022 and will render the Xanthi-based manufacturing unit the largest in the world for industrial, motive, lead-acid batteries.
The long term business case for storage will be supported by increasing interconnection, opening ancillary services and Greece’s accession to the market coupling platforms, but until then, public funding is required to kickstart investment. Funding was first announced in 2021 as part of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
The need for storage in Greece will accelerate rapidly over the next decade as renewables targets are revised upwards and coal plants are closed. The pivot to gas, a core part of the country’s energy strategy just a couple of years ago, has been upended by the disruption to supplies and price volatility caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
