Cost of Photovoltaics in Greece in 2026
23/04/2026
The cost of photovoltaic systems in Greece in 2026 ranges approximately from €6,500 to €22,000, depending on the system's power and equipment. A residential system can be amortized in 4–6 years, offering a significant reduction in electricity bills and clean energy for over 25 years.
Prices per system size
The prices of photovoltaic systems vary depending on the power and type of installation:
-
3 kWp (small residential): €6,500 – €9,000
-
5 kWp (typical residential): €9,000 – €13,000
-
10 kWp (large residential / small business): €14,000 – €20,000
-
Off-grid system with batteries: €8,000 – €22,000 (depending on autonomy)
The above prices include equipment (panels, inverter, wiring) and installation, but do not include VAT.
What affects the cost?
The final cost of a photovoltaic system depends on many factors:
-
System power (kWp): The larger it is, the higher the cost but also the savings.
-
Inverter type: A hybrid inverter (e.g., DEYE SUN-10K) costs more but allows battery connection.
-
Storage batteries: Adding LiFePO4 batteries (e.g., Pytes V5 5kWh) increases the cost by €3,000–€8,000, but offers energy autonomy.
-
Panel quality: High-efficiency panels (monocrystalline) have a higher price but better performance.
-
Installation difficulty: A roof with a special slope or a remote location increases labor costs.
Payback period
The payback period depends on electricity consumption, the price of PPC, and the size of the system. For a typical 5 kWp residential system:
-
Annual savings: ~€1,500 – €2,200
-
Payback period: 4–7 years
-
Panel lifespan: 25–30 years
