EREN’s 70 MW solar power plant project secured a price of 50.68 euros/MWh. A 42 MW project by EDF recorded a price of 50.87 euros/MWh, while Spes Solaris, a member of the Panagakos Group, secured a price of 54.82 euros MWh for its 37.94 MW solar project.

A total of four projects, two solar and two wind, failed to secure prices. ENTEKA missed out with its two wind farm projects with 72 MW and 63 MW capacity. A 50 MW solar power plant by PPC Renewables and a 23 MW solar power plant by EDF also did not succeed at this RES auction.
