Greek PPC ready to handle spike in energy consumption due to heatwave

Greek State Power utility PPC (DEI) is ready to address the increased energy consumption expected in the next three days fuelled by the heatwave affecting Greece, company chairman and CEO Manolis Panagiotakis stated on Friday, speaking at a parliamentary committee. 

Panagiotakis stressed that all natural gas and lignite units are operating normally, as well as the power stations in Amyntaio. 

“There is enough natural gas – we do not have the problems we had in winter – so all gas units will operate normally. We may lack water, which we will use sparingly because it is the period of irrigation, but the lignite units are ready, including the Amyntaio stations, which are operating as of today,” he added.
