WE PRODUCE ENERGY, WE PRODUCE RESULTS.
HERON anticipated the liberalisation of the electricity market since 2000. Today, the total installed capacity of its two (2) gas-fuelled power plants amounts to 582 MW.
HERON POWER
HERON I, CAPACITY 147MW
HERON I, with a capacity of 147 MW, comprises three (3) gas turbines, 49 MW each. This plant has a unique feature compared to other domestic power plants, which provides an important advantage for the interconnected Greek system: its starting velocity delivers the turbine’s maximum power output in merely 20 minutes!

THIVA
4 kilometres south of the city on the old Thiva to Elefsina national road.
94,850 m2
Flat surface with gentle slopes, altitude 295 m.
HERON II, CAPACITY 435 MW
HERON II, with a capacity of 435 MW, is one of the most state-of-the-art and technologically-advanced power plants in its field. Considering that the average output of gas-fuelled power plants in Greece does not exceed 54%, HERON II’s 58% output instantly ranks the plant at the top technological echelons. The plant’s high output means less fuel consumption, leading to less carbon (CO2) emissions; as a consequence, HERON II is an environmentally-friendly power plant second to none, with the exception of renewable energy sources.
