The plots will be developed in two phases but with the goal of at least 2 GW of offshore wind energy capacity by 2030. In addition to releasing its draft plan, the Greek government has also proceeded with issuing the first two licenses for pilot projects in the north Aegean.

Early offshore wind farms were responsible for installing their own offshore grid infrastructure to connect their wind farm to the main electricity grid. From 2016 onwards, the national grid operator has been designated as the offshore grid operator and is responsible for the construction of transmission infrastructure at sea. Wind farms are connected via standardised connections of 700 megawatts (MW) or.
