We warmly thank Protergia, MYTILINEOS’ Power & Gas Business Unit for offering the first network of publicly accessible chargers, thus contributing to our vision of a resilient and functional city. The strengthening of e-mobility in the capital, combined with other major interventions such as traffic calmed streets, cycle tracks, walking paths, upgraded sidewalks, is the image of a green and sustainable Athens, for which we work consistently and with commitment every day".

We are particularly pleased to contribute to the efforts of the Municipality of Athens for a new sustainable lifestyle in the capital, offering the first network of public chargers, with the distinctive hallmark of MYTILINEOS quality.
After all, we are the first Greek company and one of the first in Europe and the world, to have set clear objectives and to have committed ourselves to minimizing our carbon footprint. We are forerunners as we are showing the way to a greener and more environmentally friendly lifestyle through sustainable mobility."
Protergia has already dynamically joined e-mobility with the Charge Home Complete / Charge Business Complete programs, aimed at owners of electric or plug-in hybrid cars. With these upgraded e-mobility services, Protergia customers have access to integrated solutions tailored to their personal needs. In addition, Protergia also provides for the procurement, installation and commissioning of chargers, as well as for the technical support to ensure their smooth operation. Finally, the competitive ‘green’ electricity product Charge Home Energy MVP, specially designed for electric vehicle owners, aims to make the transition to e-mobility more accessible with significant savings on daily vehicle charging.
Through the Protergia ChargeApp, now available for iOS & Android, owners of electric vehicles can search for the nearest recharging points across Greece, start, monitor and interrupt their vehicle charging sessions, and receive real-time notifications on their charging session progress.
For Protergia, the approach to sustainable development is a continuous objective. e-mobility will constitute an important step in global efforts toward a green future and we are committed to working with our customers to ensure an easy transition to the new era of mobility.
