What happened
Kyriakos Mitsotakis attended the inauguration of a standalone energy storage facility created by Metlen Energy & Metals and the Karatzis Group. Mitsotakis stated that the facility is one of the largest standalone battery storage facilities in Europe, designed to store surplus energy from renewable sources and feed it into the grid when needed.

Why it matters
The investment supports Greece's goal of reducing electricity prices by at least 30% by 2030 and decoupling prices from natural gas. Mitsotakis noted that Greece has achieved a position as a net exporter of electricity, with over half of domestic output now coming from renewable energy sources.
