Greece energy infrastructure development
Overview
Greece is undergoing developments in its natural gas and energy infrastructure. An analysis by Green Tank indicated that existing Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRUs) are likely sufficient to meet regional gas demand through 2040, suggesting that only one of four newly announced LNG terminal projects may be required.
In response to planned infrastructure, the Greek natural gas transmission operator, DESFA, is updating its ten-year investment plan to include connection infrastructures for several candidate FSRU projects.
Following a Final Investment Decision on September 24, 2026, DESFA also announced the implementation of a 145-kilometer high-pressure pipeline to connect Western Greece with the National Natural Gas Transmission System. This project, designed to supply the Patras Industrial Zone, is built to be compatible with future energy needs, including the capability to transport up to 100% hydrogen.
