GENERATION

Electricity generation is accomplished by exploiting various primary energy sources, such as fossil fuel (oil, natural gas, lignite, coal, etc.), renewable energy sources (RES) or other contemporary technological means (large hydropower plants, pumped storage hydropower systems, etc.). HERON has been actively involved in electricity generation for more than ten years through HERON THERMOELECTRIC S.A. (HERON I) and HERON II VOIOTIA THERMAL POWER PLANT S.A. (HERON II), respectively. We are the first group in Greece to proceed with such an investment, aspiring to liberalise the Greek electricity market, an ambition that goes back to 2000. Nowadays, the total installed power capacity of our two (2) gas-fired power plants, both located outside Thiva, amounts to 582 MW.

TRANSFER AND DISTRIBUTION

The Greek Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO) is in charge of the Greek transmission network, while the Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (HEDNO) is responsible for the distribution network. IPTO is engaged in the operation, maintenance and development of the Hellenic Electricity Transmission System (HETS), in order to ensure the country’s electricity supply in a manner that is safe, efficient and reliable.
