Goals / Remit
Public Power Corporation (PPC S.A.) is Greece’s largest electricity generator and the principal supplier of electricity in Greece. PPC holds assets in lignite mines, power generation and distribution. The installed capacity of its power plants is 11.6GW and accounts for approximately 55% of the installed capacity of power stations in Greece. Its power portfolio consists of conventional thermal plants (lignite, gas and oil-fired), hydroelectric power plants, and RES installations (PVs, wind farms and hydro plants through its subsidiary company PPC Renewables S.A.). PPC is the owner of the Distribution Network which is operated by its 100% subsidiary, the HEDNO S.A. In 2019, PPC’s generation of 25.8 TWh coupled with the 2.3 TWh that it imported, covered 45.5% of total demand. In view of its environmental strategy, and in accordance with the EU objectives, PPC is entering a new phase during which it plans to transform into a modern, strongly outward-looking and efficient European utility.
