A Shareholders Agreement for the construction of a natural gas-fired power plant, with a budget of 600 million euros, was signed between Clavenia, DEPA Emporias, EUSIF Larissa and Volton for their joint participation in LARISSA THERMOELECTRICITY.
The company is developing a natural gas-fired power plant, with a net capacity of 792 MW, in the Larissa Industrial Area. The project has received all necessary permits and is ready to proceed with construction, following the Final Investment Decision (FID) of the shareholders.
DEPA Emporias will assume the role of energy manager, as well as the commercial supply of natural gas for the operation of the plant.
DEPA Emporias is 100% owned by the Superfund, the National Investment Fund of Greece. It is the main importer of pipeline natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Greece, with over 25 years of experience in the Greek market, which allows it to achieve the best possible coupling between international supply and domestic demand.
Clavenia ltd is based in Cyprus. It is Israeli-owned and controlled by AroundTown. AroundTown is based in Luxembourg and listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. It is mainly active in the real estate sector with assets worth over €30 billion. AroundTown sees its participation in this project as a direct synergy and part of its data center strategy.
EUSIF Larissa S.E. is 100% owned by the venture capital firm SIREC Energy, which invests in energy infrastructure and circular economy projects that contribute to environmental sustainability.
Volton is a purely Greek company and one of the fastest growing energy and telecommunications providers in Greece, offering integrated solutions in electricity and natural gas and, through Orizon, mobile telephony services.
