Environment
PROTERGIA S.A. recognises that economic development depends directly on the sustainability of the natural ecosystems. The Company acknowledges its
responsibility to contribute actively to the protection of the environment and to the sustainable management of the natural resources. In addition, the Company
is committed to addressing the direct and indirect impacts on the environment from its production activities. The rational management of environmental risks is
achieved by taking preventive measurements and by systematically monitoring, analysing and assessing these risks. These activities lead to the development
and implementation of preventive and corrective action plans. In this context, an assessment is made of the environmental impacts and initiatives are taken
to minimise any adverse such impacts and foster positive ones, such as the rational management of water resources and the promotion of recycling practices
for paper, plastic and other materials in the Company’s facilities, where feasible. In addition, the Company encourages its employees and suppliers to adhere
to the relevant environmental protection and industrial safety standards. In addition to its obligation to fully comply with the relevant Community and national
laws in force, PROTERGIA S.A. has adopted and is applying a clearly defined and comprehensive environmental policy. This policy serves as the basis for the
introduction by the Company of its formal Environmental Management System (EMS), in line with the requirements of the ISO 14001 International Standard
and in response to the expectation of all its Stakeholders.
Management of natural resources (materials)
The Company’s combined cycle power plant (IPP) in Ag. Nikolaos (Viotia) was designed and is today operating using natural gas as its combustion fuel, since
this is the most environment-friendly mineral fuel.
