The System and Network Operators announce the unallocated safe power absorption margin from RES stations at the saturated network of the Peloponnese (downstream Koumoundourou ultra-high voltage center), according to the margins included in Decision RAE 663/2019 (GG 3660 Β/2.10.2019) and the power retainment, to this day, from stations in operation and a Final Connection Offer, as well as from the stations under paragraph 1 of Article 132 of Law 4819/2021 as in force, as per the following Table:
| Wind Power Stations | Photovoltic Power Stations | Hybrid Power Plants | Biomass, Biogas, Geothermics, Solar Thermal, CHP Stations | RES Stations under the provisions of paragraph 2 of article 60 of Law 4546/2018 (Only from Energy Communities) | Total | |
| Total RAE 663/2019 (MW) | 1200.00 | 900.00 | 100.00 | 80.00 | 70.00 | 2350.00 |
| Power retainment (Stations in Operation and with Final Connection Offers) | 1,184.95 | 805.83 | 62.65 | 14.50 | 70.00 | 2137.93 |
| Retained for allocation to stations under paragraph 1 of Article 132 of Law 4819/2021 as in force | 86.00 | 86.00 | ||||
| Unallocated Margin (MW) | 15.05 | 8.17 | 37.35 | 65.50 | 0 | 126.07 |
The above unallocated margin will be covered by the Operators by issuing Final Connection Offers at stations in the IPTO and HEDNO updated Single list with the pending requests for receiving a final connection offer at RES stations in the Peloponnese saturated network, pursuant to the details specified in PART D (Priority Framework applied by the System Operator and the Network Operator at areas with saturated Networks of Ministerial Decision ΥΠΕΝ/ΓΔΕ/84014/7123, GG Β4333/12.08.2022, as in force. For the stations that are going to be installed in the area of Troizinia, it is as of yet not possible to issue a Final Connection Offer due to the saturation of the local 150 kV network, at least until the completion of the enhancement project of this network at which the above possibility will be re-examined. It is estimated that tis project will be completed by the 2nd Semester of 2025. (Project 14.21 of the Provisional Plan of the 2024-2033 Ten-Year Development Plan (DPA) of HETS.
