COUNTRY: GREECE
ISLAND: SIFNOS
PROJECT PROMOTERS: SIFNOS ENERGY COMMUNITY
SECTOR: ENERGY COMMUNITY
PROJECT VALUE: 14M €
WHAT IS THE PROJECT ABOUT?
- The implementation of final studies for electricity saving in potable water production.
- Hydraulic distribution and installing centralized solar thermal collectors for hot water production. It also involves a feasibility study for a hydrogen production, and storage plant which will exploit the annual electricity surplus from the wind park-pumped torage Hybrid Power Plant (HPP) in Sifnos.
- The project aims for optimum electricity saving and management, facilitating HPP operation and achieving 100% energy independence on the island.
HOW WILL THE EU ISLANDS FACILITY NESOI SUPPORT THE PROJECT?
- Proposed measures include new pumps, variable speed motor drives, a centralized control system, and a photovoltaic plant for electricity compensation.
- Economic assessment includes set-up, operation, maintenance, annual benefit, indices, and sensitivity analysis.
- Key performance indicators include annual electricity savings, payback period, renewable energy penetration, and CO2 emissions.
