The energy crisis will only delay delignitization in Greece by one or two years, purely for reasons of energy security, as a result of geopolitical developments, estimated Giorgos Stassis, chairman and CEO of Public Power Corporation (PPC), at an Economist conference in Athens on Wednesday.
He emphasized that Greece is a little better positioned than the rest of Europe in the face of the energy crisis, noting – for example – that it has an LNG station.
“But certainly the situation that is taking shape will be a great challenge for all of Europe, including for Greece,” he said, before stressing that the ongoing energy transition signals the transformation of PPC.
