Greece ran entirely on renewable energy for five hours for the first time last Friday - using solar, wind, and hydroelectric power. It reached a record high of 3,106MWh (megawatt hours) of electricity at 9am local time (7am UK time), according to IPTO, the country's independent power transmission operator. IPTO said: "For the first time in the history of the Greek electricity system, the demand was covered 100% from renewable energy sources." Greece aims to double its green energy capacity more than it hopes, renewables will account for at least 70% of its energy mix by 2030. This definitely proved that the attainment of transitioning to a 100% renewable electricity system in Greece and other parts of the world is within reach in Greece, a concept that was considered impossible. Kudos to the government of Greece and its ministry of Environment and Energy for showing the world that renewable energy is sustainable and dependable. https://news.sky.com/story/for-five-hours-last-week-greece-ran-entirely-on-electricity-from-solar-wind-and-water-12720353
