Greece Daily Load Shape and Duck Curve by Hour, 30 September to 27 October 2026

In the 28 complete local days from 30 September to 27 October 2026, electricity demand in Greece averaged 5,216 MW and typically peaked at 12:00 local time (6,286 MW) and bottomed out at 04:00 (4,000 MW). With solar and wind taken off, the remaining load fell to -1,123 MW at 13:00 and then rose 4,149 MW between 15:00 to 18:00. Hours are local clock time (Europe/Athens).

Key Facts

  • Over 28 complete local days from 30 September to 27 October 2026, average demand in Greece was 5,216 MW. The hour of the day with the highest average demand was 12:00 local time (6,286 MW) and the lowest was 04:00 (4,000 MW).
  • The largest three hour rise in average demand was 522 MW, between 17:00 to 20:00 local time.
  • The single highest hour of demand in the 30 day window was 7,708 MW, in the hour starting 2 Oct 2026, 12:00 EEST (UTC+03:00).
  • Solar output averaged 6,340 MW at its 13:00 peak, 122% of average demand.
  • Demand minus solar and wind (net load) averaged 1,948 MW, fell to -1,123 MW at 13:00 and rose 4,149 MW over the three hours from 15:00 to 18:00, 80% of average demand.

Average Day by Local Hour

28 days to 2026-10-27, Europe/Athens time
Greece average demand and net generation by local hour Average electricity demand in Greece by local clock hour over 28 complete local days from 30 September to 27 October 2026. It was lowest at 04:00 (4,000 MW) and highest at 12:00 (6,286 MW). Net generation is the power produced inside the grid, so it differs from demand by net imports. 0 2,500 5,000 7,500 10,000 00:0003:0006:0009:0012:0015:0018:0021:00

Each value is the mean over 28 complete local days from 30 September to 27 October 2026, weekdays and weekends together, for the hour starting at that local clock time. Net load is demand minus solar and wind generation. The single highest hour of demand in the whole 30 day window was 7,708 MW; it is a published reading, not an average, and is not part of the profile above.

Assumptions

  • Hours are local clock time in Europe/Athens. A local day is used only if it is whole inside the 30 day window and at least 22 of its hours are complete; the profile uses the 28 most recent such days. Daylight saving follows the local clock: on a clock change day the missing hour is absent and the repeated hour is averaged over both readings.
  • The average mixes weekdays and weekends and covers only 28 days, so it describes recent conditions, not a seasonal norm.
  • The evening ramp is the largest rise over three hours in the average profile, starting between 14:00 and 20:00 local time.
