heal.abstract
This project investigates the merits that will occur from the development of renewables, by studying the current situation, and the actions and legal framework that promote this development. More analytical, the austerity measures imposed in Greece and also the EU 2020 targets for the protection of the environment, oblige Greece to find a solution in order to both ensure the safety of the environment and the restart of its economy. The answer to this issue seems to be the development of Renewable Energy Sources (RES). Greece aiming on its energy safety and to a series of benefits that can assist the country to deal with financial crisis, it has to develop renewables, such as wind, solar, hydroelectricity, geothermal and biomass. RES development in Greece faces current technical, political, social and financial challenges, but it is high necessity to succeed, since this accomplishment will benefit the country to a wide spectrum. The merits of this deployment can be detected on many different categories, such as financial sector, energy security, protection of the environment and generation of new job positions. Consequently, it becomes clear by this project that Greece, even though it has to face many obstacles towards the deployment of RES, it needs to “invest” on them since it does not have just the potential, but also it would benefit from them.
