Enel Green Power Hellas (EGPH) has connected to the grid its new Kafireas wind farm complex with an overall capacity of more than 154MW. Located in the municipality of Karystos (Evia), Kafireas involved an overall investment of around € 300 million.
The Kafireas facility, which is a cluster of seven wind farms for a total of 67 turbines, will be capable of generating approximately 480 GWh per year. The facility is supported by a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with the Hellenic Electricity Market Operator (DAPEEP). The wind project includes the interconnection with mainland Greece through a 150kV high-voltage overhead, underground and submarine cable as well as two new 150 kV high-voltage substations in Evia.
