Start of construction of a photovoltaic plant in Western Macedonia

A new photovoltaic station, with an installed capacity of 80 MW, in the “Akrin” location of the Kozani Regional Unit, in exhausted lignite mines of ΔEH, is added to the organic growth of PPC Renewables’ RES portfolio.

The works for the new photovoltaic station “Akrini” have already started and in its construction, high efficiency bifacial photovoltaic panels will be used, on a stable support system. Given the rich solar potential of the area, the estimated yearly Piarousal of the station is estimated to amount to 127 GWh annually. With its operation, the new station is expected to aPiprevent fromPiOhmPis CO₂ her class of 73,500 tons in yearly base.

PPC Renewables is currently constructing in Ptolemais news projects RES total power 800MW. These include, in addition to the “Akrine” project, the iconic photovoltaic project “PTC Ptolemaida Mine” with a capacity of 550MW, which is one of the largest photovoltaic projects in Europe. Upon their completion, the total installed RES capacity (excluding large hydroelectric plants) of the PPC Group I will come up at 2,300MW.

PPC Group is creating the foundations to lead the energy transformation in the country. Today, with total installed strength above of 1,500 MW (excluding the large hydroelectric plants) and its ambitious investment plan, has positioned itself dynamically in the field of RES.

PPC Renewables, a 100% subsidiary of PPC, invests in the power of nature with the aim of promoting green electricity generation and energy storage projects. PPC Renewables, in addition to the large photovoltaic and wind farms it builds, innovates in Greece with its activity in all forms of RES, wind, solar, hydroelectric, geothermal and biomass – biogas.
