Greece rolls out balcony solar kits to cut bills

Greece is embracing balcony plug‑and‑play solar systems that connect directly to standard sockets with minimal installation, priced at 500–1000 euros and capable of trimming annual electricity bills by 15–25% (up to 50% when paired with a solar water heater). A renewable-energy bill moving through Parliament would allow installation via a simple notification to the distributor and set up a digital platform to declare equipment, aiming to boost access for renters and apartment dwellers even as a broader regulatory framework remains pending.
