Overview
The Programme “Kinoumai Ilektrika” subsidises the purchase of EVs by different categories (natural persons, enterprises, taxi owners). In addition, the production of biofuels is eligible for subsidy or tax relief under Law No.4399/2016. Apart from that, a biofuel quota scheme is in place. However, it is not applicable to islands (both interconnected and non-interconnected).
According to NECP, Greece aims at increasing its RES share in final consumption for transport from 6.6% in 2020 to 19% in 2030. Biofuels are expected to increase from 228 ktoe in 2020 to 371 ktoe in 2030 and Electricity from 5 ktoe to 94 ktoe respectively. -
