1 Macroeconomic Overview

Nominal GDP Growth & Inflation

Government Debt

Key indicators suggest that the Greek economy is on the verge of recovery

Current account deficit

► The current account deficit of c.15% in 2008 was reduced significantly mainlydue to lower consumer spending as a result of the austerity program.

► The austerity program is evident from the significant contraction of the economy, expressed both as a decline of GDP and through deflationary

pressures.

► The government debt (expressed as a % of GDP) remains at high levels,

however has stabilized in the last 4 years.

► All indicators suggest Greece is at a turning point, improving its

macroeconomic indicators (positive government balance, GDP growth, etc.), despite any hiccups in the short-term, such as elections in 2019.

Economic Sentiment vs. Real GDP growth

Economic Sentiment Indicator ► Greece’s economic sentiment index, after maintaining a net pessimistic position throughout most of 2008-16, returned to a net optimistic position in

December 2017.

► The increasing levels of investment over the last two years, combined with

improved government finances, suggest that Greece may soon experience inflows like similar EU countries (eg. Spain, Portugal and Cyprus), following

their own successful adjustment programs.

► Privatizations have played a key role in the recovery of Greek government finances, and have had a positive impact on the wider Greek economy.

There is still a significant pipeline of opportunities to come to market over the next few years.

New investments play a crucial role in the turnaround of the Greek economy

► In terms of RES, Greece offers an excellent wind and solar potential.

► Ambitious and regularly reaffirmed targets for RES development: the Greek

electricity TSO forecasts c. 4.7GW of new RES until 2027.

► The RES sector recently switched from a FiT scheme to a FiP scheme via

auctions that fosters rationalization of tariffs and market stability.

► 2.6GW of new wind and solar tenders to come in the next 3 years (have already

started in July 2018).

► RES transactions have resumed in the recent years, following a period of

subdued activity.

► Financing for RES projects mainly provided by Greek systemic banks and

multilaterals; foreign commercial banks still absent from market.

Installed capacity Jun-18: 2017 continued the trend of 2016, which proved to be second best year for wind power installations after 2011, with deployment of new

121MW capacity unitl Sep 2017.

► In 2018, the Greek wind power sector comprised of ten major market players

operating wind parks of c. 2,7GW of installed capacity and a considerable pipeline of projects.

► Greece’s top five wind energy groups are: Τerna Εnergy (536MW), EltechAnemos (286 MW), Iberdrola Rokas (251MW), EDF EN (238MW) and Enel

Green Power (201MW).

► The solar power sector covered nearly 7% of the country's electricity needs with

a total installed capacity of 2,229MW (2,094MW interconnected system, 135.89MW NIIs), bringing Greece to one of the first places worldwide in terms

of the contribution of PV to total electricity demand.

Recent significant developments in the Greek RES sector

2 The Greek RES sector

Recent market developments

► Law 4414/2016 introduced Feed-in Premiums (FIPs), which in most cases, replaced the Feed-in-Tariff (FiT).

► All wind farms (with the exception of wind farms with capacity <3MW and demonstration projects) entering commercial or trial operation after Jan-16 in the I/C system are

required to participate in the wholesale energy market and paid as per market plus a

variable FiP (difference between RES market price and set price or Reference Tariff

(RT)).

► From 2018 onwards, RTs are set through an auctioning process.

► Wind farms entering into commercial or trial operation in the non I/C islands after Jan-16

continue to access a FiT-based scheme (compensated through RTs), provided that such islands remain non I/C or do not have a fully operational daily electricity market.

► New FiP and FiT contracts for wind farms will cover a 20 year period

► The first two tender auctions for renewables successfully took place in July and

December 2018 respectively.

► The joint auctions for 400 MW of wind projects over 50 MW and solar over 20 MW,

originally proclaimed to take place by the end of 2018, are shifted to 2019.
