Evangelos Mytilineos announced the agreement of Mytilineos with PPC for the new and last contract for the supply of electricity at the Aluminum plant of Greece during the regular annual general meeting of the shareholders of the listed company.
The president and CEO described the agreement as satisfactory for both parties, noting that it will last until 2023 and underlined that it will be the last in the 60 years of operation of the factory in Agios Nikolaos, Boeotia.
“We are divesting from PPC, something we were afraid to do for years”, he noted characteristically to announce that after 2023 the plant will cover the electricity needs from the new 826 MW gas unit as well as from bilateral contracts with photovoltaics. “We will green aluminum [production] and we will have cheaper energy,” said Mr. Mytilineos.
As he said, the new unit that will be ready for operation at the end of the year is located just 500 meters from the Aluminum Factory of Greece and will be connected by a powerline.
He himself praised the attitude of the president and CEO of PPC George Stassis, saying that he is distinguished by realism and understands the needs of industry.
